a very cute experience

helpful staffclean roomstreet noise
the staff was friendly and helpful throughout my stay. the room was not only a great size but also clean. free parking was available quite close to the hotel, and i was even offered breakfast even after i was late, thoughtful.
the main street-facing room was quite noisy, and i had to keep the windows open. this meant i experienced street noise, occasional shouting, and some smoke smells. the tv signal was poor, limiting my entertainment options.
