It was a nice, clean hotel for the area. It was a convenient walk to the museum, park and restaurants. The staff was very nice and knowledgeable. The rooms are a little outdated and the bed wasn't the most comfortable, but the rooms was a good size and worked well for our family. I would stay there again.
