The staff Were really good. They gave GREAT recommendations for local restaurants. The room included really good furnishings with a very special view. We were able to garage the car safely nearby.

It was difficult to find the hotel. I think clear signage would solve that problem.

a mixed experience

central locationlimited breakfastinsufficient space

the location was indeed quite central to everything.

The room felt small and lacked sufficient space for luggage, resulting in items being placed on the floor. also, i found the breakfast options to be rather limited. Only a small croissant and bread were provided. i hoped for a bit more variety at that price point.
