Although we had a slight issue with the cleanliness of the bedsheets and clog bathtub on the first room that was assigned, the issue was resolved immediately and very satisfied after that. Staff are friendly and very helpful.

Wouldn’t stay here again
Our 9th floor room was next to the elevator shaft. It was noisy through about midnight. Also breakfast was poor.

It was a 10-15 min walk to the Legislative office. There are some hilly streets.
Nice that they have restaurants right there in the hotel and across the street.
