Satisfactory stay downtown

central location on-site coffee street noise window insulation

I liked the great central location. It made getting around easy. I enjoyed the design and finishes, which worked well for me. I found coffee available on site handy before trips to local coffee shops. I could easily walk to many shops and restaurants.

The room faced the street, so it got noisy. I did not get a good night's sleep. I think the windows need better insulation, especially on lower floors. I noticed the noise from the street even with the windows closed.

excellent location and well-equipped rooms

central location easy check spacious room convenient parking

the location was excellent being right in the center of town. i appreciated the easy self check in process using a key code. the room i had, a beautiful studio, was spacious and well equipped. it had everything i needed for my stay and parking was easy with the parka app.

the lack of on-site staff made check-in a bit tricky particularly since i arrived after midnight. i had some initial trouble getting the correct access codes but it was sorted in the end
