7.8/10 Good! (1,952 reviews)
We had an issue with the tub drain the first night but after contacting customer service the second time we were given an upgraded room. The hotel is located in an area very close to Resturant, banking and shopping facilities which was a plus for us.

Cute little hotel with character. The layout was a little odd but I didn’t mind. The staff were very kind and I felt safe and comfortable.
