mixed feelings about my stay

central locationsense of security
the hotel location was very central to everything.
unfortunately, my experience was negatively impacted by an incident. my perfume was stolen from the room by a cleaning staff member. this made us uneasy about leaving valuables in the room. i didn't report it, but it affected our sense of security.
