Pros. The young lady naming the desk the day we arrived was pleasant and so helpful. Her restaurant recommendations were spot on. The cleaning staff was also willing to provide useful amenities like a hair dryer and facial tissues. When the owner returned he was not helpful and we were glad we have not had to deal with him our entire stay. The location was quite convenient.
