Breakfast was ok, mostly pastries/bread/bagels/waffels. Appreciated the hard boiled eggs to have something other than bread. Hotel was clean, person doing the check in was unenthusiastic and didn’t give much info about the hotel at all. Room was nice, having a balcony was really nice to enjoy the outdoors from your room. Overall the place was good for an overnight stay.

Great location-Great Hotel

We had a room with king bed and comfortable couch/sleeper. Room and bath were tended each day and everything was clean. Only hot breakfast items were make your own waffles or oatmeal, but pastries looked above average and fruit and hard boiled egg available also along with juices and yogurt. Fun coffee/latte/hot chocolate maker. Staff always responsive. Enjoyed the fireplace in the lobby too.
