While close to town center getting there requires a walk up a very steep hill--not suitable for old people. The hotel was helpful in terminating our stay after one day. A well placed hotel for younger people requiring a basic hotel. Breafast was good. Evening menu should be avoided.

When I arrived, there was nobody at reception. I went and looker for someone to help me check in. I was referred to the computers in the lobby. However, I wasn’t able to check in via that method. I went back to the staff and then they finally helped me. I booked the hotel through hotels.com and thus wasn’t able to check in via the computers. Thankfully after that, everything went better. They were very helpful in helping us find parking and the stay itself was good. The staff was very friendly and our kids were given a toy. The room was small but functional and clean. Nice option for a layover.
