Was a nice stay, would have like more silence at night
Pros:

Breakfast was good, and the pool was nice. Room was a good size and could be kept very dark during the day.

Cons:

2 out of 4 nights the people above us were very loud throughout the late hours of the night. I had a young child and it made that difficult.

How inconceterate others where in the hotel very loud into the early morning hours. Had to call main number to have something done they calmed down but then started in sounded like they where going to come through the ceiling. I did not rest left early so disappointing.

Friendly people at the desk. Close to St. Bonaventure. Clean.
