I stayed here over Christmas and loved it so much I rebooked for New Year’s Eve. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, which made the whole stay feel easy and comfortable. The rooms are decent and cozy, and some are currently being renovated, which is nice to see. Overall, a great experience and I’d happily stay again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Bathroom very small, grouting around the tub cracked, dirty and moldy. Room was getting a little dated. Parking did not seem very secure and the front desk suggested bringing belongings into the room due to the homeless who frequent the area. We have stayed here several times but feel it's time to find a new hotel that's more suitable.

All in all the room and staff were good. The only 2 issues I had were the "paper thin walls" You can hear people talking and their TV at low volume. Also the heater is under the window bit if you want heat you have to open the full length curtains. They need to do something about that.
