A Pleasant Stay
simple check-inhelpful staffold-fashioned decor
Check-in was simple. I could enjoy a breakfast, which many places have discontinued. The staff were supportive and helpful. They did everything they could to assist me.
The hotel showed its age a little. A full redecoration would make it even better. The old-fashioned decor does require an update.
