The location is perfect for exploring the city. The rooms are beautifully designed. the staff were really nice too. the rooms are very comfortable too.
the breakfast place is badly organized. i expected some flexibility for a late check out after spending a substantial amount of money for the room. they refused to grant even thirty minutes i feel this is commercially unreasonable.

Adequate stay overall

spacious room central location inconvenient switch street noise
The room was spacious (a Loft King Room City View Top Floor) and well-appointed. The location is central. (I appreciated the proximity to local eateries.)
The light switch for the bathroom was inconveniently placed behind the door. It was hard to find it in the dark. There was some noise from the street at night (not a big deal but noticeable).
