Modern Comfort and PERFECT Location!

modern design water dispenser bedroom slippers comfy bed

The hotel's design was very clean and modern. I especially loved that there was a water dispenser near the lobby, so I could refill my bottle ANYTIME. New bedroom slippers were provided each night. A very sweet touch!!! The bed and pillows were super comfy.

I did notice a slight noise issue from the room above me, a little distracting. The walls perhaps aren't as soundproof as they could be.
