Really liked the contactless check in and the codes for each individual door, that was nice. Even though we didn’t follow it correctly the first time the staff were so incredibly patient and helpful!! Would definitely come back!

Good location. The room was moldy and musty with lots of cobwebs. Extremely tiny shower. Furnishings were outdated. Not what we expected. We left after one night due to mold and mildew.
