"Things were clean, staff was pleasant. The common areas were a bit run down, and there were strange design choices and amenities in the room. The sink was tiny, like barely big enough for a glass of water tiny, but had a firehose for a faucet. Limited towels and no washcloths. Could not get the room cool enough with the thermostat. Good location, but pricey for the quality."

"This place was small but cozy and had everything we needed. We loved how the beds upstairs were one soft and one firm (suited our personal needs). We were spoilt with the dryer as many other places don’t provide this with the washing machine. The decorations were fun and quirky and we felt right at home."
