We didn't see any staff. We were given a code to enter our room. It was quick and easy. The room was modern and beautiful. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. Bath towels were sooo soft. I loved this place. It was located within walking distance of stores, bars and restaurants. Great place to stay in. They also allowed dogs and we were also withing walking distance of a park for my dog. I will definitely stay there again and recommend it to our friends.
