The hotel is exceptionally clean, and the breakfast is excellent with a wide variety of options. The location is perfect—right in the city center and within walking distance of all the major attractions. However, the hotel does not offer on-site parking, and nearby overnight parking costs approximately $52 per night.

Clean room, breakfast room staff friendly and efficient, check in and checkout fast. They accommodated my room location preferences and it was a quiet sleep. I like hard floors instead of carpet but the same vinyl flooring was used throughout which made the whole place feel like a hospital vs nice hotel.
