This is a well located hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful when asked about gluten free breakfast options. Though not everything was readily available at busy time, they were able to bring gf bread and the signage was excellent. Main issue for us was noisy booming disco music way too audible on the 4th floor, preventing us getting the best night's sleep. Still, not sure how that could be prevented. I would probably book elsewhere due to this factor, especially on the weekend.

On each floor there are about four rooms that are much smaller than the advertised 230ish square feet, we were given two of those rooms and were disappointed given we prioritize room size when choosing hotels. It felt like we did not get what we paid for
