Everything was great with the property, especially the parking. I just like a firmer mattress and the pillows were like decorative pillows and quite firm. It wasn’t terrible and I would definitely stay there again. Great value for money.

Overall the property was great. I was already expecting it to be out dated but it was clean and hotel staff were excellent. It was quiet. Mainly from what I was able to see in my short stay tourist, and people who are there for work. That’s why I was there. I wanted something affordable and I didn’t need the fancy pool or anything else. I just needed a quiet place to get some work done and to go to my meeting the next day. There are lots of dining options and specialty coffee and pastry options as well. Overall, I would stay here again if I needed to come for the same purpose.
