I really enjoyed my stay here. I would recommend it again. The only issue we had was with the AC not working for about a day and a half, but they finally resolved it.

I will not be returning to this hotel. This decision is due to an incident of profiling; I prefer not to elaborate further. But just know if you a person of ethnicity you are not treated with respect.
