comfortable beds spacious shower great location friendly staff
My room had size, a pleasant surprise. Beds were comfortable after long day, and the shower and tub felt huge with plenty of hot water for me to use. Location made it easy to walk to shopping and dining, it were close to area attractions. The staff i met were friendly and always helpful.
The room got a little cold and i turned on the radiator, but it didn't give off much heat.
