The location of this hotel is the best! It is a solid 3 star property . The room was very small but had 2 queens so there was little room to move.
Breakfast was good and not so good depending on what you selected. The selection was good.
The included hot breakfast rates 4 stars! Though under upgrades in renovations, workers were polite and never a issue during our stay. Location, location fantastic!
