Walls are very thin in the rooms. Could hear conversations next door. Bathroom is small. King bed & comfy pillows. Good location. Friendly staff. A little pricey overall.

The room was clean and the staff was great! Nice selection for breakfast. Bed was a little softer than i prefer but not worth complaining about. Overall it was an excellent stay.
