The staff was wonderful. Problems were resolved quickly. The room was very dark even with all of the lights on. The carpet was due to be replaced, . Thats probably why the lights were so dim . The breakfast was very good, cooked options are available along with pastries a ,fruit, and, cheeses

The staff was excellent! They helped w our heavy luggage and where very friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. It was situated in a very convenient spot to go walking to nearby places. Felt safe the entire time. Only negative thing I can say is that it doesn’t have AC (we where there in early August) but it wasn’t that bad without it.

I had a great stay at your hotel. But, I do feel there shoud be updates made to the rooms. Carpets should be cleaner. Also, the shower curtain should be removed and a new one hung up.

I loved my small attic room, very cozy. It had everything I needed. The bed was supremely comfortable. The tub was very deep and I used that every night! The staff was very friendly. I love the location in the student part of town. There are lots of nice places to eat and drink that were friendly and low-key.
