Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. Despite the tiny bed with a window on the closet loft in the room and the uncleaned bathroom, the King size bed was a plus. The service was friendly, with staff willing to keep an eye on my bags after check-out. However, there was a slight hiccup with the reservation at first. The location was convenient, being close to the Metro station, but it was not the most exciting part of town. The dining options offered varied choices but lacked homemade rolls. Overall, it was an average stay with some highs and lows.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful! The location is superb, just across the road from the Metro, making it super convenient. The rooms were spacious and clean, providing a fantastic view. The service was top-notch with a friendly staff always ready to assist. However, dining options were a bit limited, which was a small downside. The facilities were great, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
