Overall good hotel, just a shame about the paper thin walls and ceiling as you can hear everything, it sounded like there was an elephant stomping around above our room every night until about midnight. But the hotel was clean and friendly I wouldn’t stay again because of the noise and having a young child with us

Liked: Cleanliness
We had reserved a one bedroom apartment unit, but we discovered the one bedroom apartments had the bedroom in a basement with no window or ventilation. Even worse, the toilet was upstairs, and the stairs were very narrow. We requested a room on one level. We were given a very small room with a tiny bathroom, which the staff told us was the only room available. Later we discovered there were much nicer rooms available. Even mentioning Rick Steves did not merit better treatment.
