Excellent stay downtown
ideal location cute staff peaceful retreat
I found the location ideal for exploring. The staff was cute and very professional. The quality of the room offered a peaceful retreat in the city center. It was great that the hotel was nice and neat.
The soundproofing in my room was not ideal. I could hear some noise from neighboring rooms. This made it a little difficult to sleep soundly one night. I hope they can improve this issue.
