Reviews based on Location
The hotel is in a nice area and well kept. However, the receptionist didn't provide any information about any of the amenities of the hotel. We were just given a physical key to a room that was getting its lock changed, but that was really it. They get the extra star cause the breakfast was very good and a nice surprise. Unfortunately, the rooms here don't have A/C and the room got unbearably hot at some point. We had to keep the window open to let some air circulate but then noise became an issue. Our room was right above the parking lot and the kitchen so we had different loud noises almost throughout the stay. When we complained, the receptionist just apologized and stated they would look for a solution that never arrived. There was no follow up nor was the issue addressed again.
Nice large rooms with comfortable beds. Bathrooms are also large and have hot water. Breakfast is okay at best. The staff members are very nice and helpful. Some rooms are separated by a door, so you can easily hear your neighbors. The gym is nice and gets the job done. There are several nice restaurants and bars within walking distance. The biggest problem I have with this location is that there is no air conditioning in the rooms!
