Everyone was helpful and friendly. There is an espresso machine maker and fridge provided as well as 2 bottles of water. Beds were very comfortable and loved the pillows. The restaurant on site was very good. Everything we had there was absolutely delicious. There are a few things to walk to in the area, the Public Gardens are work walking through and there is a mall that you can access from the hotel that was convenient. I would definitely stay here again if I was in the area."
