Worth it

Great location. Breakfast for us was included and was perfect. Something for everyone to chose from. Only complaint is the noise. Across from a church that chimed every 15 minutes all night long. They gave you earplugs if that would help you it’s an option. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance. No parking for the hotel so you have to find street parking.

It is at the heart of downtown so everything is walkable: restaurants, shops, bus stops. We liked our spacious room. We had the Biggest room with kitchenette and balcony. We didn't like that it is beside a church wherein the bell rings every hour. We didnt like that the shower is separate from the toilet. Moreover, there's not much space in the shower to hang your things, like the clothes that you will wear after. It would've been better if the shower has it's own toilet and a little space for you to move around. It would also be better if there is a microwave downstairs for general use. The staff were kind enough to let us use the microwave in the staff room. There's one staff though that didn't allow us at first until i told him that we have been using the staff microwave for 3 days already. After that, he just let us in and use it. He was gracious after so I wasnt mad or disappointed. He was just doing his job. Kudos to all of you

Amazing, comfortable and modern

Incredible room, friendly staff, and little extras like ear plugs if needed to help you sleep. We had a family of 5, and this room was perfect for us. Probably the most comfortable pull out mattress from a couch my daughter has had to sleep on.
