helpful staffdark curtains
The staff was friendly and helpful. They were reachable anytime, which I appreciated. Rooms were tidy, they included a panoramic window and two sets of curtains. These kept the room very dark when I slept.
The entrance to the parking garage was quite narrow. It was a little challenging to navigate with a bigger car.
