Guest Reviews:
- "Modern, clean and very well located for foodies." - "The room was extremely comfortable and quiet. it had a great view of town. the location to Japantown was perfect! The staff is very friendly and helpful. the parking garage was so convenient too because it is hard to find parking." - "Staff was exceptionally helpful" - "The location was amazing, specially to enjoy Japantown. Lovely region to walk, even at night. The rest of the city is easily reachable by a short bus ride. Staff were helpful to provide things we needed (a pair of scissors, bicycles etc.) and even the housekeeping staff was very friendly. Rooms were great, and the free green tea provided was delicious. The courtesy coffee in the morning and wine in the evening was a nice touch."
