I chose this hotel as it had good reviews and easy, free parking. It was 800 meters from a cafe/bakery which we walked to for breakfast. The staff are very friendly; the beds are comfortable; the room was decorated nicely; it was nice and clean and everything seemed to be in good condition. I would stay here again.

Hospitality- top notch. Other properties could learn from the staff here. Everyone was friendly and helpful, smiles all around. Breakfast options were delicious and covered a wide range of tastes. The only thing I would have liked is a ventilation fan for the bathroom, taking hot showers made the room feel a bit damp at times. Very minor, and wouldn’t prevent me from staying here again!
