Really good Hospitality and Prime Location
cute staffthoughtful detailcomfortable roominconsistent air conditioning
The staff were cute and accommodating throughout my visit. I felt genuinely at home here , a very simple detail. I especially appreciated receiving two complimentary bottles of water each day, thoughtful. The cozy, clean, and comfortable room helped me relax after long days.
The air conditioning was not consistent. Sometimes, it was too cold, and other times too warm. This.
