Really good Service and Prime Location

helpful staffprime locationclean roomlimited breakfast
The staff offered a wonderful overview of the city using a map upon my arrival. They provided many suggestions for exploration. The room was clean and included amenities such as shampoo and a hair dryer. I found the shower to have great water pressure, a feature I particularly appreciated. The hotel is steps away from major attractions..
