I had a great stay here for two nights. The first night was a bit tough since there were many kids running and shouting after 10 pm. However, I still gave this property five stars because the front desk took my call seriously and took actions immediately to solve this issue. The staff at this property are professional, friendly, and willing to help. Highly recommend!

Weekend getaway

Very good hotel. Comfortable. Great location. Only drawback was that our stay coincided with the stay of a youth Hockey team. They were everywhere, tying up the elevators and noisy. Parents and coaches were even louder. Will definitely book again.
