The staff was kind and friendly. Parking was a breeze, the location of the hotel is an easy walk to many main areas of the city. The rooms were clean and had helpful accommodations in the kitchen. Within the junior apartment there was a microwave, sink, fridge, plates, cups, utensils,coffee machine, saucepan, toaster, and a two burner gas stove. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will gladly return.
