Solid Choice for Exploring the Area
nice buildingspacious roomcomfortable bedhot items
I found the building had nice architectural details from the 1920s. It was set in pleasant surroundings. The room provided was spacious. I appreciated the bed since it was comfortable. Breakfast was good with a decent selection of hot items. The staff there were friendly.
The place wasn't well lit outside when I arrived. I felt a bit unsure if I was at the right place. The lack of lighting made it difficult to see.
