Nice staff, not overly personable but pleasant. The hotel itself is lovely and in a great location, Nextdoor to the gondolas, but sadly they were closed down right now.

The site manager, Felicia, was very helpful, knowledgeable and personable. Our room was quiet and comfortable. The property was very "homey" with 24 hr access to a kitchen and beverages, Its location to shopping and dining is unbeatable. Most enjoyable!
