The hotel is nice but the staff is better. I felt always welcomed, any inquiry was answered in the best way possible. Very good and hearty breakfast, I highly recommend this hotel. It is only a 10 minute walk to the downtown area.

There were so many problems I don't even want to take the time to go through them all. Find a location slightly closer to the center. The only positive was free cake and unlimited coffee and tea and cappuccinos from the machine until midnight.

I liked how personable the staff was. They even made cakes and desserts for us! Rooms were clean, but i did find a pill on the floor, and not enough hand towels. Shower in my room was pretty small, but sufficient. I would stay there again

This is such a warm and inviting spot! The people and room were great. The evening cake was the sweetest touch. I especially loved that the tables, morning and evening, had little candles burning. Such a beautiful sight.

Clean, basic room with decent breakfast at a good price. We did have a sewage smell in the bathroom until we poured water in the shower drain. The only toiletries were all-in-one body wash. Stay on top floor if you don't want to hear people walking on hard flooring. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and I would stay here again.
