So clean, great location, super friendly and available staff!
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
The staff were very helpful and kind. Clean and spacious room. Cute bakery across the street and restaurants within walking distance.
No floor mirrors in the rooms and no safes to lock up valuables. The road noise could be a little loud. The breakfast provided was average.
