The property was clean, well appointed and very nicely decorated. It is self serve type hotel without a front desk. We had difficulty using our no key, phone entry. Had to call and someone was quickly able to help us get in. Other guest said they also had difficulty with it. Coffee and cold water are provided in the common area with a common fridge to use. We also had a bag with towels and chairs were available to reserve. It was a pleasant 10 min walk to downtown area. Easy parking. If you are sensitive to noise that could be an issue. Overall a great experience.

Great base camp

A nice centrally located hotel. The app was a little cumbersome to use and get into the hotel with. I am all for a self check in and check out but made it tough if you had any issue to not have anyone onsite. If there were issues you had to walk across the street to the sister hotel. The room was nice and the bed was comfortable. Room was very clean. We had an issue with our clicker and were offered to move rooms since it couldn't be fixed. We declined since we only had another night but very nice to have them accommodate us if there was an issue. The staff we did interact with was so nice and friendly and super helpful. Nice spot and they held our bags after checkout.
