10/10 Excellent
"Check in was easy, but it’s not at the property. It is a very short walk away at a hotel We were in room 107. The room is like an efficiency apartment with a living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. The bedroom is considered two beds, but it could be a queen bed. The beds were super comfortable. The shower was nice. It had a towel warmer. The shower pressure was good and hot water was available at all times. The room had a small balcony. A hair dryer is available for use in the restroom They have a communal area with a coffee maker, ice and a small fridge. They also have a small washer and dryer. Detergent is provided. Parking is on site and there’s plenty of it"
