The hotel is close to the historical neighborhood but it is an older property and you can tell. My room had a balcony and was facing the street so a bit noisy with cars and motorcycles. I was surprised having a suite with 2 queen beds it didn’t include Free breakfast. They did clean the room when we were out daily so that’s good and water was only $1 do they didn’t overcharge on that.

The maids did a very nice job of making up the room and didn't wake us or bother us in any way by knocking on the door. They respected our privacy. The front desk staff was polite and helpful. This is an older property, but it has been well maintained. The parking lot was easy to self park and had constant security. I very much appreciated the "No Cannabis" policy.

I am actually seeking a partial refund. We booked this property specifically to enjoy the outside pool in order to swim laps which we like to do every day on our vacation. The pool was closed both days and we had to use a much smaller indoor pool.
