Robert

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The hotel was very clean, the staff extremely helpful, and the hotel is very convenient to meals and shopping. Reasonable price. It’s kind of dark and dingy—it’s a very old building and could use some lighter color interior paint. The bathroom was very modern, although the shower a bit weak, and the sink tiny. You can tell they really have done the best they can with an old building, and some off-white paint would go a long way to brightening it up.
