"Great location but small rooms. Great place to base yourself. Be advised, if you have a car, you cannot drive to the front of the hotel. It’s restricted to cabs and busses. We had to park illegally 1 1/2 blocks away and walk with our luggage."

"We loved our stay at this hotel. They stored our luggage until it was time to check into our room, so we could go explore the city. It was close to the bus stop into the city with easy access from the airport and to the city locations. The restaurant was nice and convenient. We would highly recommend this location!!"
