This is the typical hotel to stay while visiting nearby attractions. The rooms are clean and modern. The breakfast is very good with scrambled eggs, bacon, fruits, bagels, cereals and more. Coffee, teas and juices are also offered. Be advised that the desk opens for check in at 2:30 pm, so it is not useful to show up earlier.
