I must compliment the staff who were so friendly and helpful. The rooms, while on the smaller side are really well designed, comfortable, with luxury finishes and everything you need. Loved the steamer for my clothes! Breakfast was delicious. A very welcoming, boutique vibe.

The location is ideal. The staff is friendly. The room is very cozy. But, I kept taking cool showers for fear of setting off the alarm. They also changed the sheets but not the towels. But it was so very nice.
