“This property stands out for its surprisingly large rooms, complete with full kitchens - a welcome amenity in a downtown setting. The location is indeed central, but the adjacent construction noise may be a factor for some; on the other hand, the pool area provides a nice respite and the staff are particularly accommodating. Overall, expect a comfortable and convenient stay that exceeds standard hotel offerings, but with a few urban trade-offs.”
