Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with a few minor issues. The rooms were clean and ready for me, although the shower could have used a bit more cleaning. The bar was entertaining, and the price was reasonable.
The hotel rooms were spacious and well-equipped with a refrigerator and coffee facilities, and we all loved the comfortable beds. The elegant feel of the bright lobby was delightful, but it was not cleaned thoroughly from the prior tenant initially. However, the staff quickly resolved this by upgrading us to a suite at no extra cost, which was clean and even had a small balcony.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and became available even earlier than expected. The service was top-notch, with the staff being very nice and helpful. The location was perfect for my needs, close to shops and restaurants. The dining experience was real nice, better than most, and the facilities were great.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The room was spacious and had great amenities like a refrigerator and coffee maker, but the street noise could be bothersome at times. The elegant lobby was impressive with its cleanliness, but the ongoing renovations slightly affected the overall experience. The service was top-notch with friendly staff like Ida and Vickie at the front desk, yet the oversight of not restocking toiletries daily was a downside. The location was convenient for my needs, being close to shops, restaurants, and my workplace, but the traffic around the intersection could be tricky to navigate.
I truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were quiet, and the location was excellent, but the walls were a bit thin. The service was very nice and accommodating, although they forgot to leave soap and shampoo on subsequent days. The dining experience was good, and the facilities were also well-maintained. The price was reasonable for what was offered.
