THE breakfast had so much to choose from. The location was GREAT. We did not need a taxi to go out or back. The room was really comfortable and the staff were friendly.
THE room got VERY hot. The air conditioner did not work right. Each time we flushed the toilet, the pipes made a LOUD noise. The view from the room was not nice. You could only see other rooms' windows.

The included breakfast had good options. The room had tea and coffee making facilities. I could control the air conditioning unit easily. There Was Always hot water available for showers. I found convenient, safe street parking nearby at all times. Staff responded quickly to my requests. I appreciate their friendliness. Breakfast was lovely, but i hoped for more savory options next time. The location was perfect! though the parking was expensive. The staff were very helpful. I felt at ease in the ambient bar area, it had a calming atmosphere. The room was very clean, and modern! The comfy bed. Check-in staff were so cute and kind. I REALLY recommend this hotel for a sweet stay.
I think the gym could use some updating with newer equipment.
