9/10 Wonderful! (47 reviews)

Nice little hotel. Within walking distance of shopping and dining. Staff was very nice and very helpful. Room was nice. Don’t forget to ask for slippers and toothbrush. Not in the room but provided once you ask. Don’t expect a big breakfast buffet but was very satisfying. And again friendly staff. Will definitely stay again next time I visit.
