Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is in a great location-wall to metro and restaurants but parking is a major pain. Don’t even try on a weekend nite- the garages are all full. The hotel is also a hostel- we stayed in the hotel. The room is super tiny and there is a ladder to the bed. It works- but there’s no dresser or really a place to put ur stuff. Staff is super nice and all is clean but a warning-there r night clubs on both sides which play music till 3 am and u can hear the vibration in ur room.
