"We have stayed here many times and have always enjoyed our stay here. It’s an excellent property. Breakfast and the bar are nice. The rooms are modern and the bed is very comfortable. The entrance is crowded and on a busy street. It would be nice having a nearby taxi stand. We had mixed luck getting Ubers and taxis to pick us up at the hotel entrance."
