Arlo, BW Signature Collection
Really clean, conveniently located. It took 8 minutes to get hot water for the shower and the room is very exposed to street noise. Lovely staff. Overall great value for money but I’d bring earplugs next time!

The rate I booked was supposed to include a $20 credit towards parking, but the front desk knew nothing about that and I didn’t get it.
