An absolutely amazing stay—clean, peaceful, and truly welcoming!”
Pros:

The staff were truly amazing—kind, respectful, and always ready to assist with a smile. Rooms are clean and comfortable Their professionalism and hospitality made me feel valued and comfortable throughout my stay.

Cons:

To be honest, not because when I get there, I was supposed to check in at 4 PM but however, the staff walk me through and get me a temporary room until I was able to check in on my correct time and he did everything one time I think it’s OK and I was very satisfying

Not somewhere to stay for more than one night
Pros:

Centrally located

Cons:

The room appeared larger online The walls are paper thin. You heard everything going on in other rooms.
The front desk is almost nonexistent.
There is no parking at all since they’re on a busy street. There was a baby that was screaming to the point that I check out of the room early

Lovely short stay in a clean facility.
Pros:

The room and facility was clean. Easy to check in with professional staff. Easy Access to necessities in the neighborhood.

Cons:

The king size room was shockingly smaller than I expected compared to the queen size room but it was still a lovely space.

Also can toothpaste & tooth brushes be provided?
