Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved staying at this hotel! The location is superb, right off the Court St district with easy access to the farmers market and surrounded by amazing bars and restaurants. The rooms are modern and well-equipped, offering a cozy ambiance. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff catering to all my needs. However, the dining experience fell short with limited options. Despite that, the facilities were impressive, especially the cozy restaurant area.
The hotel is ideally located in the central district, close enough to walk to the Farmer's Market. The rooms are modern and spacious, offering a great value for money. However, the dining options could be improved with more variety. The service is exceptional, and the facilities are top-notch.
