Pro : Clean hotel, breakfast was good, plenty of fresh water, coffee, tea and fruits all day, many restaurants within walking distance.
Con : the room is kind of too small for 4 ppl, no parking space that hotel provided, there is a valet parking outside that cost $40 a night.

Convenient location. Very nice and comfortable place
Breakfast was absolutely terrible. The people in other rooms could be heard slamming their doors and being very loud into late hours of the night and early hours of the morning. The only pleasant thing I can say about the place is the location and the distance it has from local spots and activities.
It was very nice place for my stay. It is a very central location. The breakfast was really good everyday. The staff was very helpful each day and had great customer service.
