Everything is great here. The decor, the care with the room. The only downside is not having lift. Take that aside and this is a dream come true.

Loved this stay. Only cons would be that there’s no elevator and that the parking just outside the hotel was VERY expensive. But other than that, it was a really great hotel!

I found that the room was quite nice and comfortable. I would have preferred to have a coffee maker in the room over the turntable. The staff were responsive to text but this hands off in terms of approach. You are given a code to the front door and a code to the room. Someone next to me had left their dog in the room so I woke up in the morning to a loud whining dog for more than an hour. Staff responded but the people had left the hotel. Over all good for the price and location.
