The rooms need a bit of uplifting, especially on the AC front...The hot water was rarely hot, just acceptable. Nevertheless the staff was lovely. Truly. Helpful and lovely.

"The check in/out process was very organized with options for early arrival or late departure (for a fee) which was very helpful to me. Everyone was friendly and professional. The room was clean and bed comfortable but being earplugs for city traffic and car horns of you are a light sleeper. Common are carpets in my wing need to be replaced but my room carpets were clean. Overall great stay! Great location!!"
