While staying at this hotel I received several bug bites. I asked the hotel to investigate and they couldn’t confirm what the source was. In addition, two of my items went missing and again the hotel mgt had zero explanation for this. The manager advised that they have an issue with mice in the court yard but had no explanation for the bug bites.

The location is great but if you can’t walk steps or have limited mobility work with the apartment management directly. We were on fifth floor and elevator only went to fourth floor. Very convoluted walking patterns.

3.5 stars but good ones!

Very well run hotel/apts and efficient staff but although clean and comfortable it wasn’t 4 star, more good 3 Star. This is fine but it means they’d have to drop their prices or think about upgrading the rooms a bit. I’d stay there again on a last minute deal anyway as it served my purposes fine.

The staff were all polite and checking was easy. We were allowed to leave out bags with the hotel until the official check-in time. Upon check-in, were given a room facing the courtyard which had additional late night noise from the adjoining restaurant, this made getting quality sleep until midnight possible. The room was slight worn, but well used and housekeeping did an excellent job of restocking towels and remaking the room. Overall, we enjoyed the hotel and aside from the late night noise from the attached restaurant we'd potentially stay at this location again.
