8/10 Good
"We stayed 2 nights Friday and Saturday. Rooms are clean staff is friendly and helpful. I did not however like that the room had no coffee. I had to open my eyes and walk to the elevator go downstairs and get coffee in a lobby full of people. The breakfast was okay nothing special. Also the rooms have no microwave and a very small fridge. The fridge is big enough for drinks but that is about it. We did have some noise from the floor above called the desk and they took care of it quickly. The bed was comfortable, the hotel was cute. Seemed very kid friendly nothing against it but I will stay again if that is all offered. Would rather stay at a Marriott property."
