A Truly Nice Stay

attentive staffexcellent showercomfortable linenstocked kitchenette
The staff were always great I found them to be helpful with suggestions and directions. The shower had excellent water pressure it was spotlessly clean too. Linens and the bed promoted comfortable restful sleep plus dark conditions. I also enjoyed the thoughtful in-room amenities there was a fully stocked kitchenette available for use.
The lack of an on-site restaurant meant breakfast wasn't available however local options were readily available nearby.
Location

The staff was super friendly. My room was really quiet even though I was right in the middle of it all. That triple-pane glass is no joke! I had a kitchenette. That was really handy for me.
