"The staff was professional and helpful. They provide Uber to the Square and returned. Breakfast was good. I was disappointed that we were there 5 nights and they did not provide room cleaning and refresh towels. Someone told me that service is generally not provided anymore anywhere.

"Everything was wonderful! The hotel was spotless and the staff was so wonderful and helpful. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because the elevator did not work for the days that we were at the hotel, which made it difficult to transport our luggage and have to go up and down the stairs every day. Other than that, I cannot wait to stay at the hotel once again."
