Anonymous, Jan 2019
Pros (+) Great location, generally nice place.
Cons (-) Had to request maid service. We slept in, with "Do Not Disturb" but maid never returned. Also, shower curtain way too short. Bathroom flooded every time we took a shower.

Very good
Lisa, Sep 2016
Pros (+) Everyone we dealt with went out of their way to make sure we were all amen care of
Cons (-) The hotel, being a block away from a playground, needs to be more child friendly. There were glass jars on low shelves in the breakfast dining room area and the a/c untits and microwaves are at the level/height where kids can do some damage! it would also be great to have a ramp at the entrance instead of a small wheelchair lift.
