What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious and Inviting

I really like the room and its size with all the facilities in it. The studio I stayed in felt like home due to its spacious layout and modern amenities. It included a huge sofa and even a washer and dryer, which was a pleasant surprise. I felt comfortable and relaxed throughout my stay.

Clean and Functional

The bathroom was clean and had all the basic necessities. I appreciate that the hotel provided ample toiletries and towels. The only drawback was the shower, which lacked a door or curtain; it would be great if they could add this feature for added privacy.

Convenient Parking Options

Parking was easy to navigate, with paid lots available near the hotel. It cost around $33 a day, which I found to be reasonable given the convenience of being able to come and go as I pleased. I appreciated the app that allowed me to manage my parking experience effortlessly.

Great Appliances and Space

The room was equipped with a full kitchen, including a dishwasher and kitchen appliances that made my stay very comfortable. I enjoyed having the option to prepare my meals rather than constantly eating out. It made the space feel more like home and was perfect for a long visit.

I had a great experience at the hotel, thanks to its spacious and modern rooms that felt so inviting. The location was absolutely perfect, just a stone's throw from popular attractions and eateries. However, I found the dining options to be a bit lackluster, especially when it came to breakfast. The amenities were nice, but I think they could enhance them a bit more. Overall, considering the price, it was quite decent, but there are a few areas that could use some improvement.
