Great location once you figure out how to find it (use Hotel Venue G as landmark). The room was very clean, quiet, spacious and included all basic amenities. The staff was great and super helpful. They provided us with a converter, shower curtain and extra comforter as the bed was too firm for my friend. Overall a great stay.
