"We were originally booked 10 days, but came back and stayed an extra night. Our first room had ants in the bathroom. Like a lot. They were coming up from the floor. After 3 days of no help, we bought some tape and taped over the hole. Other than that the stay was perfect. When we originally checked in we were told there was no elevator access so we got a new room without any problems. Excellent location. Really yummy diner attached. "
