Good place to stay, some wear to the room. Office chair was in bad shape. Breakfast food was good, just not warm, no jelly for toast and space was too small for size of hotel. Staff were nice, air conditioning was good and bed was comfortable.

Hotel location was nice it’s walking distance to lots of places. Breakfast had great options. Room faced the main road so I could hear traffic all night. Also bathroom door is on roller so trying to close it and keep it closed was tricky. Staff was friendly and helpful.
