We had a wonderful stay. As we arrived early, super friendly staff granted us an early check in. The room was great, super clean with a very comfy bed. The location is perfect - there are few restaurants close by and walking distance to Georgetown. Absolutely loved it and would stay here again!

The entire staff was extremely accommodating ! I had to stay there for several weeks due to me relocating and they were always polite and on top of maintenance requests. I didn’t think the area seemed to safe but the hotel has staffed security so I would definitively recommend anyone to stay here . If I need a place near the area I’ll be going back !
