- Review: Absolutely loved this property. I stayed in the repurpose room which is a lovely little self-contained bedroom/livingroom with attached bathroom. It was so cute and has it's only little fenced in space outside. The check-in process was super easy and didn't even require talking to anyone. Though I ran into one staff when I arrived and they were super friendly and helpful and showed me where my room was. Loved the amenities, the room was super cute and the location was really nice and central...., by Emily, 5 April 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent
