Very nice place
Everything was new, fresh, clean and comfortable . Bed is a foam mattress which was bit on the firm side. I had a hard time unlocking the door with the code which we received after I contacted them when we were 30 minutes away. This is the only complaint I had. You have to walk up the stairs with your luggage. Overall we loved our stay and it was really close to the wedding that we attended.
