Horrendously overcharged for a sub standard room advertised as Luxury King. Charged twice for the same night and the cleanliness was very average. Will not be back.

Close to shopping and restaurants. The couch was small and uncomfortable. The tv didn't reach to the bedroom so couldn't relax and watch tv.

EVERYTHING........was excellent but in particular, the manager and his staff. They were cheerful, helpful, obliging. Particularly helpful. I had a few problems (personal) while there and absolutely nothing was too much trouble.
