2. I must admit I was a little nervous after reading some previous reviews- Some friends had made the reservation for them and us- I was very pleased w/ the results- As other posts had mentioned, the staff was very friendly and accomodating- It was in a great location to all of the neighborhoods we wanted to cruise- The price was far better than others in the same area- Yes, the fixtures, carpet, and wallpaper was somewhat dated- And yes, you had to climb a small flight of stairs to access the elevators- None of those things matter to me- The room/bathroom was good sized and clean- The breakfast buffet option was very plentiful and good- I would return.
