Hotel is very nice and highly recommend. It’s a little noisy at night, but the hotel does provide ear plugs. It’s conveniently located close to several eating places. Hotel itself doesn’t have a parking area, but the parking garage is close by. Breakfast is phenomenal with great service.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a generally positive experience. The rooms are very spacious, which made for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The location is excellent — close to everything and very convenient for exploring the area. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, always going out of their way to assist, which really stood out. There are a few areas where the hotel could improve. Rooms on the lower floors can be quite noisy, so I’d recommend requesting a higher floor. The breakfast was quite basic — it would really benefit from the addition of some cheese, cold meats, and better bread options like croissants or fresh rolls. Serving yogurt in individual portions would also be more hygienic, and the coffee was much too light for my taste. Also, for the price, it would be nice if they offered at least a bottle of water in the room as a courtesy — a small gesture that goes a long way. Overall, a good choice thanks to the great location and excellent staff, but a few thoughtful upgrades could make the stay even better.
