excellent stay!

early check-inexcellent locationtwin room
i really appreciated that i was allowed an early check-in after my long flight! it was very convenient to easily reach many places from the hotel. the location is excellent, i found.
It was frustrating that twin room availability was limited! i had messaged about needing a twin room, but it was not reserved. Luckily, the staff arranged a move for the second night.
