It was OK. Apparently, this is one of the cheapest places in the area. Rooms are small but comfortable. Breakfast is OK. The location is good, I think it’s 10 or 15 minutes to all the main attractions. The parking situation is pretty good. Also, you just park in the basement and there’s a door leading right to the hotel.

No ventilation in the room. Had a street facing room in the 1st floor- not particularly convenient to open the window to ventilate. Product is basic and adequate. Not designed to spend anytime in the room other than sleep.

Friendly staff on arrival. Quick check-in process. Easy to find our room. Room was clean and modern. Quiet, no interruptions in the night. Tea/coffee making facilities would have made the room perfect! We had to get drinks in the bar area. Bar area also had friendly staff. The whole hotel had a nice ambience and was clean. Perfect for a mother/daughter weekend away.
