Guest Ratings & Reviews
This hotel is a gem! The rooms are cozy and come with a lovely patio; however, the shower could be improved. The service is exceptional, and they even offer pet amenities, which is a huge plus. The location is superb, close to the city center and near a park, making it convenient for exploring. The dining experience, although offering English muffins, falls a bit short. The facilities are great, but prices could be more competitive.
I had a great stay at the hotel, with comfortable rooms and friendly service. The location was convenient, close to stores and within walking distance of the city center. The dining options were satisfactory, especially the grilled and boiled fish. The facilities were well-kept, making my stay enjoyable overall.
The hotel is a great choice for a cozy stay with friendly service and a convenient location. The rooms are well-equipped, but the dining options could be improved. The facilities are enjoyable, though some aspects may need enhancement.
