Good environment Quiet The hotel is located in an apartment building and there are many restaurants around.

It’s newly built building. Everything seems new and clean. The area is really chilling and nice with some restaurants and bars options. Recommend it!

Was there a fire at this hotel recently? They just cancelled my reservation I made 4 months ago because I booked on a 3rd party website because a fire made them oversold and they kept those that booked directly... I guess the lesson is don't book on a 3rd party website or you will be the first to go?

Terrible Experience – Avoid This Listing! I booked this place by mistake and reached out within 2 minutes to cancel, but was told there are no refunds—even though the stay is still 10 days away! I also asked about early check-in and was given vague, unhelpful answers. Their phone number listed on Airbnb is fake, and there’s zero way to get in touch with them directly. This is clearly a scammy setup that shows no professionalism or customer care. It’s absolutely ridiculous that a place can take your money and refuse to even talk to you about it—especially when the cancellation was nearly immediate. Total lack of respect, no support, and the worst communication I’ve ever experienced on this platform. Stay far away!

I was disappointed because there was a full on video production shoot happening in the hallways with equipment and lots of staff associated blocking the hallways. No laundry detergent, no dish detergent or dishwasher detergent. The bedroom was so small and only had a small window that looked into the living room which was strange. In order to use the luggage dolly I would have to leave my license to assure that I would bring it back. The apartment leasing company is located in the lobby but the hotel check in is on a different floor so of course I greeted who I saw. However I didn't want to interrupt their conversation so I waited patiently however they ignored me and when I said excuse me after about 4 minutes of just standing there they annoyingly said that check in was on another floor.
