A Pleasant Stay in Town

friendly staff early check-in restful sleep great breakfast
The staff was friendly, which charmed me. I asked for an early check-in, and they accommodated it beyond my expectations. I also had an excellent night's sleep. The breakfast was great (especially the pancakes!).
The shower cubicle looked a little grimy around its base, a minor detail in an otherwise perfect stay.
