Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel showcasing a great location near fabulous restaurants. The rooms were a bit dark due to facing a generator, but the service was top-notch with a congenial staff. The proximity to excellent dining spots is a major plus, yet the lack of proper views and occasional privacy concerns with staff entering unannounced were drawbacks.
The hotel had a mixed experience with a dark room facing a black generator nearby but with added quirks. The service was lacking, with delays and intrusions, and the location was convenient for certain activities but not perfect overall. The dining was enjoyable but not included in the room price.
I chose this place because of its thoughtfully designed rooms that were available very early in the day. The service is also beyond friendly and quick to bring anything we needed. The location was excellent, with chill efficient and friendly staff around. The dining experience at the hotel's restaurant was great, but not part of the room price.
I chose this hotel for its thoughtfully designed rooms that were minimalist, clean, and comfy. However, the grey wool covers in the summer weren't to my liking, and the view was obstructed by a large black generator just 15 feet away.
