This place is great. Our beds were very comfortable. The chairs and sofa were cute but pretty firm and not comfortable. The staff were awesome and the restaurant on the top floor was very good.

The staff were wonderful, the food was excellent, the staff was fantastic, the only real thing lacking was amenities. Everything was a charge with few complimentary items, and at the price point it’s at felt a little crazy. But overall it was a great hotel and the chef staff upstairs were 10/10
