Not clean at all. Bad smells throughout the hotel, not hot water, hotel staff trying to get into our room without our permission, parking is too expensive.

I liked the staff and the room was nice. In a good location, with parking. The breakfast was good too. You get some good exercise walking up the hill to the hotel.. ;)
