10/10 Excellent
"Lovely Hotel, Excellent Location. Walkable to many conveniences. Clean, friendly staff, having the kitchenette was convenient. My only complaint would be parking at $35 per day .. no self parking at reasonable price. I must say the valet parking attendants were courteous and timely."
