Great location would stay again.
Pros:

Location was great, right in the middle of town. It was quiet, clean and a nice room.

Cons:

Would have liked a window and towels were thin, no blow dryer in the room and no iron just a steamer at the front desk. Also, had to go down stairs for coffee.

Good location, comfortable balcony room, hot tub on roof, unusual lobby, no refrigerator
Pros:

room and balcony were great. Hot tub on roof was fantastic. location excellent. beautiful and unusual lobby decor with great ambience and music. l

Cons:

No refrigerator! When we told them, they at first offered to put one in, but then said there were none. It was very inconvenient to bring our food to the front desk.

Good but could have been better.
Pros:

Location, decor and staff.

Cons:

While our room was huge, there was no closet and no luggage rack and no clothes rack which the front desk said they would get to us and never did. They also promised to fix the safe which he tried to do but couldn’t . He said he would get someone to fix it but never did. Also, the electrical outlet in the bathroom didn’t work so we couldn’t use hair dryer in the bathroom
