I really loved having david to meet us at the door. He helped with our luggage, and made sure our room temperature was just right! he gave us directions to great places to eat and shop, plus, he shared some awesome local history! there were a lot of choices for transportation nearby, but walking was really easy too.

The shower pressure in the bathroom could be better. It took me a little while to figure out how to use it.

the location proved convenient. i found bus stops just a short walk away, made getting around very easy. the staff, especially david, were helpful (he offered great recommendations for local spots!). i also appreciated the cleanliness of my room and the thoughtful amenities provided.

the bathroom felt a bit cramped. i also noticed the wifi signal wasn't very strong in my room, unfortunately. the breakfast time at 8:30 am felt a little late for me on one morning.
