    Value for money

We had a fantastic stay at this apart-hotel. The cleanliness was impeccable, with spotless rooms and common areas. The hotel facilities were outstanding, including a well-equipped gym and a clean and spacious pool. Parking was convenient and readily available. The location was perfect, with easy access to a nearby grocery store for all our needs. The hotel also provided a shuttle service to the subway, making it incredibly convenient for us to explore the area.

Nothing that we didn't like.

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The fully available in-room kitchen was a great convenience. The friendly staff was always ready to assist us. We also appreciated the availability of coffee, water, and lemonade in the lobby. The shuttle service to and from the metro station made it easy for us to explore the city.

Not one thing.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The front desk personnel were incredibly helpful and friendly, making me feel welcomed after a long journey. The location was perfect - I could easily walk to Target & Safeway for any personal needs. The spacious rooms were perfect for my family, and I loved having a kitchen available. The evening cookies and drink station were a nice touch. The shuttle service, although not available when I needed it, was a great addition for transportation.

Nothing for me.

We loved our stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, with easy walking distance to the metro and a cute neighborhood playground nearby. We also enjoyed being surrounded by trees and residences instead of commercial lots. The facilities were excellent, including a clean gym and pool area. Our room was spacious and well-equipped, with a comfortable bed and a kitchenette. The staff were friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable.

Nothing negative to say.

The staff was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure my stay was great. The location was convenient, with a shuttle to the metro and a 10-minute walk to the station. The room was spacious and clean, with a comfortable bed. Having a kitchenette was helpful.

Nothing not to love.
