Overall great stay. Very clean. Breakfast was very basic and poor quality. I would have appreciated upon booking more information on what self check in and check out entails. I my case I am Canadian and did not have cell service so am not able to receive text messages. The self check in and out information should also be emailed.

My first contactless hotel experience
I did not realize that this was a contactless hotel, but found another guest who explained how it works. Different, but ok. The room was extremely clean, bed was comfy, and it was quiet.

Very cute design and building for a hotel! Quite modern on the inside. Was not happy that the front desk assumed that I wanted a room on the first floor with two twin beds instead of a room with a king bed like I booked online. Called the number on the building twice requesting a room with a king bed and both times the key failed, so I gave up. The room was nice but the tv does not work. Overall not super thrilled and don’t think I should be charged the full price for a room I didn’t want and appliances not working.
