This hotel was very convenient for anything around the city. Staff was very helpful and gave us their own personal fan when they didn't have to. They put the guest before themselves.

This hotel has the best location and didn’t break my bank. Everything we planned was at walking distance. Grocery store even close by. There is also a small botanical garden so close to the hotel with a nice trails, beautiful views, playground, trees to climb (my 7 years old son really loved it). Restaurants with in 20 minutes walk so is a train station. This hotel also serves a breakfast with a healthy options such as overnight oats, smoothie, fruits, yogurt. And my husband loved his bacon, eggs, bread and much more food and drinks option, just amazing. Loved this place. We’ll be back again someday!
