excellent location spacious room entry code large bed

The location was excellent! It had great access to local cafes. The room was spacious and well kept. I loved that!

I didn't receive an entry code! I had to call several times before someone gave it to me. The option I selected was two single beds for my daughter and me. I got one large bed.

A Charmed Stay

large kitchen living room convenient parking simple check-in

The living room is good , providing ample space to work. The large kitchen includes everything needed for family cooking. I found parking convenient. Two spaces are available in front. Self check-in was simple , thanks to clear instructions.

The musical keypad on the front door was rather loud , disturbing sleep whenever someone entered or exited the building.
