THE RESERVE RETREAT

8/10 Good

"The apartment was sweet and clean. But the air conditioning unit was VERY loud and ran all night to keep the room cool (76 degrees F, not cold). It should be replaced with a mini-split system."

Kompose Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing price for the niceness of the hotel. Great location too. Plenty of amenities but I didn't have time to use them. Staff was helpful and they even had a mini coffee shop. Only negative I could think of was no water fountains at all in the hotel, but there was water in the lobby for drinking."
