unsupportive mattress missing fan
The mattress in the room felt old and worn, it offered very little support. An iron was not present, yet an ironing board was available. There was also no fan, only instructions for requesting one. This made for a particularly uncomfortable night, compounded by the room's excessive heat.

fantastic stay!

easy parking gorgeous building friendly staff accommodating service
The room was really easy to find, and the parking included was a massive plus! the building is just gorgeous, and our room was super lovely. i would stay there again if i'm ever in that area. The staff were genuinely friendly and accommodating too. they helped us with any questions we had and were even nice enough to mail back my charger, which i had left behind!
I noticed the room was too hot! it was impossible to fully open the windows. I wish there had been a fan available to make the room more comfortable.
