"Delighted by the cleanliness & friendliness of this hotel! "
Overall Score5.0/ 5
The room was very large and was more of an apartment. The price was phenomenal for the service and environment we were provided. The front desk was very polite and educated. They made getting around the hotel and entire city very easy for us with maps and printouts of all information you need. Breakfast was beyond what I expected from a hotel. I am very delighted by the cleanliness and friendliness of this accommodation.
