This is the third time we have stayed here. The furnishings are dated but beds are comfortable and having a full kitchen in a hotel is great! It is North of downtown but there are lots of restaurants around still and a bus stop 5 min away that can take you anywhere. The staff are super friendly and helpful! We will book again!

The property is located in a quiet neighborhood. It is a short drive to downtown. There is ample parking on site. Although we did not use the pool, it looked very nice. The condo is clean. The full kitchen is stocked with most of the equipment. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
