spotlessly clean and perfect location!

free parkingthoughtful extrasclean roomnoisy heater
i found the location great for exploring the town. free parking at the back was greatly appreciated. the room had thoughtful extras like a choice of tea bags, coffee, biscuits, and toiletries. the room was very clean and cozy.
the water heater next to the bedroom made noise, loud, especially when i was trying to sleep. the air conditioning unit from the hotel next door also created noise near the only window in the room. this made it hard to sleep, even with ear plugs.

Adequate Stay with Some Issues

great locationshower problemnoisy toilet
The location was great. It was close to the theatre.
The shower was problematic as it alternated between very hot and very cold temperatures. I reported this issue, but I received no follow-up call to confirm any investigation or repair of the shower problem.. The toilet was also very noisy when flushed. I could hear the toilet in the adjacent room equally loud.
