Lovely clean room, excellent and efficient system, lovely staff, ideal location. Breakfast basket was brought the evening before. If you prefer fresh coffee and pastry, I would recommend not booking breakfast and heading out to local cafes instead. Other than that we had a perfect stay. Couldn't ask for more.

We loved our stay here and felt right at home! I received many updates prior to check in letting me know the process and which building I would be in etc., and I received a link for my room key which I was able to pull up right on my phone and was so easy to use. There is no parking but there was tons of street parking close by that you can pay for with the parka app, it was very affordable and free overnight. This was literally like a mini studio apartment, had everything we needed, and was the perfect location for all the things we planned to do. Would definitely stay again!
