It was a great area to stay in, lots within walking distance. We stayed in a two bedroom room, lots of space. The only downside was that there was a lot of people partying in the rooms on the floor. It was loud. We didn’t call as it was 3 am. So it’s not the hotels fault, just a bad night. I would definitely stay again.
