The bistro's pizzas, baked on-site, were amazing! I loved the tandoori flatbread and the dirty nachos were delicious.

The room size was acceptable. The bar downstairs offered a good range of beers.

I had a poor sleep. Wall-to-ceiling cracks in the drywall allowed light and sound from the next bedroom. The bathroom light next door kept me up all night.
