The room was really clean , cozy , comfortable and the perfect size. However there was a downside. We stayed in room 201 and because close to the hotel is a bar/club We could hear the music so although the bed was comfortable we couldn’t sleep because of the music. Otherwise the hotel was really nice .

So happy with Hotel Fron

The location was great! Surrounded by restaurants/pubs/specialty bars/shops. Friendly staff. It is not new, but it is well maintained. Recommend paying for parking when making reservations. Street parking is extremely limited in this area. Included breakfast was a good, heavy continental breakfast. Room size was good with bed, couch, desk, refrigerator, and private bathroom. Coffee was wonderful! Loved our stay there!
