We had a great experience during our recent stay. The location was perfect – easy to find, very walkable, and close to everything we needed. We felt completely safe walking around the area, even at night. The hotel itself was clean and well-kept. Our room was spotless and comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Staff were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. There were plenty of dining options nearby, which made meals super convenient. Whether we wanted a quick bite or a sit-down dinner, there was something for everyone just steps away. Overall, a smooth and enjoyable stay. Would definitely come back!
