Lovely stay, conveniently located, will definitely stay here again!
Pros:

Betty checked us in and she was so lovely to deal with. She was very informative and friendly. Garrett was also there during our check in and he was great too.

Cons:

We ended up needing to extend our checkout and we went to the front desk the night before our checkout date to see if it was possible. The man there seemed like he didn't want to help and said there was nothing he could do because we booked through a third party. The next morning, we went back down to the front desk and they were able to extend our checkout with no issues.
