Great studio apt for the night.
Very nice place to stay. I needed an oven so I could bring green bean casserole to xmas dinner so opted to stay here vs. a hotel. I think I would opt for these accommodations every time. The place seemed brand new. Very nice amenities on the 4th floor. It was also nice to have a small kitchenette in my room. The $20 parking charge seemed excessive but 1) i know my vehicle was safe and 2) there wasn't really anywhere else to park close by so its paying for convenience.

A good location
This is a good place to stay if you have business at St. Mary's Hospital (directly across the street). They offer comfortable studio, one bed or two bedroom apartments. The place is well kept, the staff are professional, the amenities are good. I found the beds and the furniture were not very comfortable in the apartment we rented. We were in a two bedroom, and I tried both beds. The master had a king bed and it was really hard. The second room had a queen bed and it was way too soft. The living room furniture was not the type you want to sit on very long -I would start getting low back pain. The chairs around the dining area were higher up and no back, for me - 5 mins tops and I had to get off. I am not a fan of the keyless entry system and had a lot of problems with it. Really struggled with leaving the garage. I found the staff eager to help and very friendly. The long term residents were also friendly. There are a lot of dogs (and not all small and not all friendly either) so if you don't like dogs or are allergic like me, that can be problem. Loved the fourth floor area and great amenities!
