Pros +

  • Ease of check in and check out. Location is perfect.
  • The hotel itself is fantastic amd this was my 3rd stay. I love the location and the building itself. The amenities are very nice.
  • The setting and location are great.

Cons -

  • Not at all.
  • This particular stay was not pleasant. I reserved a specific room (#6). Upon arrival we were advised the toilet seat was broken and were offered a different room. It was next to the front desk and was very noisy. It was next to an exhaust system.
  • The rooms are beet small, but I was only there to sleep so.?
