    the staff are nice, if you have any questions, just ask. There are four bathrooms, basically you don't need to wait, which is super good.

    Friendly staff who allowed us to check in early. Even though we had to share a bathroom with 2 other rooms it was kept clean and tidy. The overall vibes were good, there was a hammock in the outside area and a very chill black cat.
