I loved the complimentary breakfast. It was amazing! The free cocktail hour was a delight, and the bartender made it even better. I met many amazing people and had great conversations. The location was convenient, a short distance from everything.

sticky carpet bathroom fan

the on-site bar was acceptable. (i mean, it had alcohol)

the room i was assigned was not great. the carpet was stained and felt sticky under my feet. also, the bathroom lacked a fan, so it steamed up quickly whenever i took a shower.
