Great location, very clean and comfortable. Nice to have a kitchenette although could be a little better equipped. The bed was on the noisy side if you’re not just sleeping in it. Would recommend for a solo traveller, maybe check elsewhere if you’re looking for romance.

Lovely property, things that should be on their website should be where parking is available as the hotel does not have parking. Ask for a hour extra check out was told there is a cost involved.

Friendly staff, early check-in (fee-based), very clean, safe neighborhood and accessible to many things (including a nice corner market) I would have chosen five stars for every question, but the app kept removing the checked stars.
