It’s a very pretty and modern hotel. The staff was very helpful and kind. And the place was super clean. The only thing was parking but it’s to be expected as it’s in the city. They do have parking pass but it’s 2-3 blocks away from the hotel.

Nice boutique hotel with a modern and comfortable vibe. The place felt safe and the room was clean and well designed. Even though we arrived late, the process was smooth and everything went well. The only downside is that there’s no on-site parking, so you have to find street parking nearby, which can be a bit challenging. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.
