It's in a good neighborhood and everything is at a walking distance. The lounge was the best part about the place, though. Also, you can keep your bags at the front desk after checking out for a while, so that was convenient. ##### Aryan Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### John steve Jan 3, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness Quite area in a good location to walk to different locations. ##### John steve Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Clyne Dec 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great customer service, clean, friendly, easily accessible to everything, friendly staff, comfortable rooms. ##### Clyne Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### LORI Feb 4, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness This place offer everything and anything you need !
