We had a wonderful experience at this hotel. We booked a room with a balcony and it was cozy and spacious. It was very clean and the bathroom was a perfect size for our two night stay. The staff were so kind and attentive. They greeted us from the moment we arrived and the valet staff were also amazing. My only complaint is that due to us being there on halloween weekend of was definitely very noisy outside and unfortunately the noise was a little tough to sleepy through but that’s not their fault and it’s understandable. We will definitely be staying here again I’ll just bring some melatonin gummies next time.

The hotel itself and our room was very nice. Absolutely no complaints… BUT there is a club right next door and across the street that seem to rage on until 2 am. The rooms are dark and there’s a white noise machine in each room and earplugs so they’ve definitely done everything they can to help us get the sleep possible. Just feel it’s good to know
