Nice property and convenient location. Wouldn’t give it four stars due to some oddities. Other than a closet, there is no storage space. No drawers or shelves, even on bed stand. Room is very small. One peg in the shower to hang a towel, but no towel racks. Also, at night the hotel lobby and bar turns into a singles place. So loud you can’t hear yourself and surely can’t sit and have a quiet drink. Also, I tried to reserve directly with the property and it was cheaper on Expedia.
