Categories

Cleanliness
8
Generally described as very clean and 'super clean' in multiple reviews, but occasional issues noted (smoke smell in some rooms, sour-smelling shower curtain) reduce the score slightly.
Service
9.2
Multiple comments praise helpful, friendly and attentive staff and front desk; several guests explicitly call staff very helpful.
Location
9.6
Consistently highlighted as a major strength: 'right in downtown', 'perfect', 'great location', close to restaurants and attractions.
Room Quality
7.9
Rooms described as comfortable, spacious with good beds and showers, but issues reported include wrong bed type, noisy/whistling window, slow elevators and some interior odors.
Amenities
7.5
Amenities include breakfast spread, all-day coffee, in-room fridge/microwave and bathtub for some rooms; negatives are no in-room coffee in many rooms, paid parking and occasional basic disposables in dining.
Value for Money
7.8
Several guests note good value and affordability for downtown location, but extra charges (notably paid parking) and a few comments that better value could be found lower the rating modestly.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast repeatedly praised as a 'full spread' and 'great' (and all-day coffee described as actually good); minor complaints about disposable cutlery/plates in the dining area.
Overall Experience
9
Many guests say they'd stay again, call it a top/very good hotel for downtown stays and praise cleanliness, staff and location — overall very positive.
