helpful staff fresh ingredients central location

the staff was so kind and helpful throughout my visit. breakfast was a delight each morning with fresh ingredients and careful preparation. the hotel is in a great central location, a short walk to many local attractions.

the room was slightly warmer than i prefer, but opening a window helped.

mixed experience at this hotel

cold beans hard chicken

the staff was friendly. the room was pleasant.

the food disappointed me. the chicken with the fajitas was hard and not fresh. the breakfast offered cold beans, mushrooms, and tomato. it seemed the chef lacked dedication.

holes in walls non-functional hairdryer

the breakfast was lovely, with plenty of options available.

The room looked tired. I noticed several holes in the walls where pictures used to hang. the hairdryer didn't work at all, and the carpet didn't quite reach the edges of the room. i also only found one tea bag in my room and not a lot of milk was available.

spacious room large bath convenient location

The room was spacious, it had a large bath in the bathroom. The breakfast menu offered more choices than typical hotels, THAT was really nice. I found the location convenient, it was easy to get around town from there.

I had some trouble finding the car park at first.
