Great for families. Fully stocked kitchen

The staff were so friendly and the room and establishment were very clean. Decent options for breakfast, but the best part of the hotel are the full kitchens. This made our stay with little ones very convenient. The location is awesome with plenty of restaurants and stores within walking distance. Our only complaint is they didnt have a garbage chute or easy to dispose of trash.

Love this hotel

It wasnt the largest suite ive stayed in but it was large enough to feel spacious and i love the way they worked with the space they had in the room. It was my second favorite room ive ever stayed in, second only to a large penthouse suite i ended up getting by chance at a different hotel. And the pillows were amazing. And they only charged a small fee for incidentals when every other hotel nowadays wants to charge hundreds, sometimes more than the cost of the room and then often dont give it back. I woke up and tried to book more nights but no surprise they are booked for several weeks. Definitely will stay here again someday.

The only reason why I'm not giving the hotel 5 stars is because I had booked an accessible room online, but was told when I checked in that one wasn't available. My sister is disabled and showering without an accessible bathroom was very difficult.

We're stayed in this hotel for a week, two years in a row. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms spacey and well equiped. The breakfast is decent, not great The hotel suffers from one problem. If you have noisy neighbours you are going to hear them and probably with great clarity! If you have considerate, quiet neigbours, it's a good hotel.
