Affordable and close to everything
The hotel is well maintained and the decor is very cute! This place is dog friendly and it was still clean and smelled great. Only issue is the fire alarm went off super early the morning we were leaving. Woke us all up and then we had a hard time going back to sleep because there was alarms going off in other parts of the hotel. Other than that issue, our stay was great!

Great hotel
loved the hotel, loved my bed, loved thevibes and location, only complaint is had lunch there, and for the price it isn't anything special. Pad thai tasted nothing like pad thai, had a few other things as came with friends and probably wouldn't eat there again. But other than that, drinks are good too and hotel is good.
