Overall I had a good experience. Staff were friendly, hot breakfast was great, room was clean. The room did have a bit of a scent but it’s expected with older hotels. The only negative remark is it was extremely noisy. There was kids up and down the hallway until midnight, and the walls felt paper thin. No fault of the hotel, just unfortunate.
