"Great location walking distance to the lake and surrounded by restaurants and cafes, nice clean room, quiet at night, and convenient underground parking for only an extra $15 a night. And the best part was that there was a washer/dryer in the room, making it so convenient as my son had a sporting event over the weekend and we didn’t have to bag up his sweaty gear."
