Comfy stay at a nice hotel
Pros:

A hidden gem. We really liked the staff, the hotel’s design and our room’s comfort.

Cons:

The price could be a little bit lower, but other than that, there was nothing that we didn’t like.

Comfortable and great value.
Pros:

It was comfortable and great location and good price.

Cons:

There’s not much security there. Anyone could enter the hotel through any doors at what seems like anytime without hotel keys. The elevator doesn’t require key either. So literally anyone could enter the property. I’m sure it’s because the area it’s pretty safe around there. We felt very safe regardless. But it was a bit striking.

It’s a nice place to stay, the patio was lovely.
Pros:

The room with a balcony and patio view was $20 more expensive but completely worthy to pay.

Cons:

The hot tub was small, not really inviting.
