helpful staff comfortable bed bedside lighting personal item storage
the staff was helpful and accommodating. they allowed us to leave bags before and after our stay. many restaurants are in close proximity, and there is a nice walk to most attractions. the room was very generous in size, with a comfortable bed and a newly renovated bathroom.
the room did not have bedside lighting. the available lighting was only one bright ceiling light. there was no storage for personal items even though there was enough room for a small dresser.
