We didn’t have breakfast. So can’t rate that. Rooms clean but small. Strict rules (to each their own) but was approached re: parking slightly over the white line where we had no choice as the other car parked next to us only left that space and we weren’t staying, we were grabbing something and leaving again. Loud at night with the sound of cars racing up the streets. Decent location tho.
