Overall wonderful experience. My dropped her room key in the elevator and they slid a note under our door to make us aware. The welcome drinks open bar is an awesome touch. The rooms are small or perhaps cozy is a better word but they offer everything you need. The blackout curtains made it easy to sleep in after a night out.

We just adjusted our usage. We would definitely stay ...

The refrigerator froze anything placed in it no matter what setting it was on. We had a room on the t...

Not everyone speaks English but translate apps are really helpful. Cleanliness of hotel is very clean. Did not see random hairs, dirt in corners or dirty walls. We’d give it a 10/10. Laundry - laundry room was clean and had ice and vending machine available. Th...
