Perfect location, well decorated. Room was clean and staff was very personable and accommodating. Needs upgrades—stains on hallway carpets, rust on showerhead, stain on headboard. Good stay but expensive based on the wear and tear.

6/10 Good

The finishes in the room did not match the amount of money we paid to stay. The light did not work, there was a hole in the shower area where it looked like they didn’t cut the tile correctly for the fixture, the thermostat control was falling off the wall and the mini fridge was not cold. The staff were nice and the downstairs area was cute.
