Nice cozy hotel, clean, great location. Complimentary coffee, some snacks and candies. That was cute. Also you will find here shampoo, conditioner and body wash, hand soap and lotion and make up remover wipes. I have only one complaint and that is AC right above the bed…which is noisy, especially at night.
