The hotel's central location made it easy for me to explore the town and its surroundings on foot. The cleanliness of the property was top-notch, and the hotel facilities were well-maintained. I especially appreciated the private parking, which was a relief in a city known for its challenging parking situation. The friendly and helpful staff ensured that I had a comfortable stay.
Don't have any issues at all.
