The staff were very helpful and friendly. They carried my luggage up and down the stairs! The breakfast offered many options including home baked cakes. The showers were good and had lots of hot water.
The floor had dust and dirt upon arrival! Shower water pressure was slow too. I wish they addressed these issues more promptly.

i appreciated the helpful staff. they were very polite. the hotel was a short walk from restaurants, shops, and attractions. the staff maintained room cleanliness.
the water pressure in the shower was low. the lights did not have separate switches. i needed the card in the contact slot to have electricity. this prevented charging anything at night when the lights were off.
