Parking is pretty tight and hard to find if you come in late in the evening and the washers and dryers never work. Other than that it's great.

The rooms were newly renovated and looked nice. Very poor internet connection and the breakfast was minimal. Fresh fruit would be a great offering.

Eh

It was okay for the most part however we had someone from the cleaning service literally just let themselves into our room without knocking. There was confusion at check in regarding payment and they wanted me to swipe my card for an additional 190 dollars. No biggie but walking in without knocking made me so uncomfortable and paranoid for the rest of the trip.

We enjoyed our stay except for two things. 1, The lighting in the room is terrible with mostly overhead lights and only one lamp that didn't work well. And 2, the room was dirty in some areas with dried pasta next to the bed. Otherwise the place is decent for the price.
