My stay at the hotel was lovely and comfortable overall. The rooms were spotless and very quiet, although there was a strong smell of air freshener. The service was exceptional, with the staff being very helpful and accommodating. The location was convenient, but I was a little wary of the homeless presence in the area. The dining experience was good, with a decent variety, but nothing too extravagant. The facilities were well-maintained, making my stay enjoyable.
