The room was clean and bright, with comfortable beds. The bathroom was small, and didn’t have a vent or fan, so it steamed up a lot after a shower. The staff was attentive and helpful. It would have been nice to have a dresser in the room, and a comfortable chair. But overall, a nice hotel with a good location, and reasonably priced.
