Really good Hotel Experience
modern decor large tv fluffy towels
The recently renovated rooms feature modern decor. A large TV provided entertainment. I found a small fridge stocked with water and milk. The bathroom included both a bathtub and a separate shower. I particularly appreciated the big fluffy towels.
The room was quite warm even with the thermostat turned down. I had to open a window to get comfortable for sleeping.
Service

excellent hotel stay
helpful staff refurbished hotel delicious breakfast
i stayed for several nights and found the staff very helpful. they seemed to be always available. the newly refurbished hotel had a great restaurant and big bedrooms. the food was tasty. the breakfast was delicious. i especially appreciated the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs.
the room cleaning wasn't done daily. this was a minor issue, but it is something that could be improved . it makes the room small.
