Property is cozy and very quiet, and staff were good !! Front desk was understaffed upon check in but very courteous! The room smelled of mildew and was very humid !! We were on the third floor and water pressure was very minimal. Bedding was of poor quality ! The mini fridge in the room was so noisy and above AC unit was so loud that it disturbed our sleep 🙈 Conveniently located within walking distance of all amazing restaurants and shopping! Definitely overpriced stay !!
