"The bed furniture can be quite creaky and very easy to hear upstairs neighbors but the location, decor, staff friendliness, and comfort were wonderful! Our room wasn’t ready until an hour after check in when they offered to switch us to a room that was ready and although they gave us the directions to our room they forgot to write down the new room number so it was a bit crazy at first but it happens! Bar was lovely and photobooth is super cute."
