A little surprised there's no housekeeping service but front desk was so accomodating. Each night a wedding was going on and the band was so loud it felt like we were there. It did stop around 11. I would reccomend this hotel for the location alone. Can't beat it. Wine and cheese was very nice too.

We booked and paid for a king room. We were told they were upgrading us to one. The room was in a dark corner and not at all what we expected from the description we were given. Disappointed. Luckily only booked one night. Would recommend the area but not the hotel.
