The staff were polite, which I appreciated.
My room needed some serious attention. There was mold on the bath. The carpet was stained, a real eyesore. The hotel room price felt too high, considering the state of the room.

Comfortable and Convenient Stay

fresh dishesconvenient locationfriendly staff
The breakfast offered many options, including hot dishes with eggs, bacon, and toast. These were prepared fresh to order and could be customized. I particularly enjoyed the avocado toast with poached eggs. The location was convenient. I found it easy to walk to nearby attractions. The staff at the restaurant and reception were very friendly and helpful. I especially appreciated their quick response to my requests, and I felt valued as a guest.
I noticed some minor wear in my room. I think a slight refurbishment might improve the guest experience.
