Overall, it's a good choice. Good location. Very clean. Pretty quiet. Reception/lobby staff were friendly and helpful. Two things I rated less...the wait staff for the breakfast bar was a little less than optimal. (Dinner staff was great.) Bathroom -- Shower water did not get more than lukewarm. Wall facing hotel room was only slightly frosted glass. Able to fairly readily see the other occupant sitting on the toilet or undressing if light in bathroom was on, even if lights were on in hotel room.

I had a wonderful stay at this place. The staff was incredibly attentive and polite. I highly recommend this property. It’s a bit small, though, and there’s no gym or swimming pool. But there’s a great restaurant on-site and a rooftop terrace with a nice view.

This is our second time here. We live the location, the staff, etc. if you are sensitive to noise, ask them for a quiet room. There are some inside rooms. Totally worth it on a big celebration weekend!
