Felt like home away from home, was clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend. Great service, easy check in and check out. Parking was available upon request, although it is a tight spot and can get full quickly. Location was central to everything.

Great place. Great area

Great rooms. Beds are a little bit stiff but comfortable. Not a huge fan of the two twins together being called a king bed, but that’s being nitpicky. The balcony is great and the showers are perfect. Very comfortable place I will definitely book again.
