great location efficient setup strong shower helpful staff

The location was fantastic. I could easily walk to most places i wanted to see. the room was set up efficiently and it was clean (which i always appreciate). the shower had great pressure and hot water immediately. the staff at the front desk were helpful and pleasant.

the walls seemed a bit thin, so i could occasionally hear noises from other rooms.
