Room was comfy, I liked having a balcony but a chair out there would have been cool but it works. Breakfast was tasty. A little annoyed to pay for parking on top of room rate or at least I missed it in booking. Great area. Lots to see and do within walking distance.

The room was updated and super clean. Excellent free breakfast. Only a couple of complaints: the parking needs to be free not an extra cost. The a/c and fan didn’t look like it was updated therefore didn’t work properly.
