charming stay downtown!

central locationhelpful staffreally good teamhigh standard

I found this location excellent for both leisure and business. it's very close to the mcpherson metro station, super useful. the staff were really good. i especially want to mention anthony, miles, layla, dannie, james, and michelle. They were excellent. ms. stella and mr george definitely maintained high standards.

the front desk worker wasn't overly friendly. he barely said a thing to us except to ask our name and for a credit card. we asked for extra pillows but they never arrived.
