Central location and great service

central location wonderful staff

This hotel has a central location. The staff were wonderful, always offering assistance with directions and recommendations. I especially enjoyed the daily breakfast buffetwith great variety. The rooms also featured fine decor. Service levels only added to our enjoyable stay.

Housekeeping was not thorough for the price. I returned to the room at 2:30 PM. It was not yet made up. When I called for cleaning, the job was only half done, disappointing. Some walls also had outright dirty spots.

Acceptable Location. Disappointing Room and Breakfast

small room tinned fruit

The location was acceptable. It's right off the main square.

I booked the most basic room. It was so small, there was no space to open my cases. The breakfast offered tinned fruit, and the pineapple was brown. The bacon looked questionable..
