busy street limited window
The restaurant was lovely I thought. The food tasted good.
My room, a Single Room, got very stuffy because there wasn't air conditioning. The window only opened a crack, and it faced a REALLY busy street. I could not sleep WELL.

The provided parking was spacious. This made arrival easy. I also found several food options nearby. These gave good variety for meals.
