convenient central stay

central location clean room friendly staff

the location was very central, with access to local attractions. the staff were friendly! but the wi-fi was slow. the room was clean and spacious, bedding was very good. i was pleased with my stay and would consider returning.

On closer inspection, certain areas needed updates, especially in the bathroom. I noticed a rusty towel shelf. also, the pillows were pretty hard. the view from my window was not the best as it faced a building roof.

Service
