The room was warm and very clean. Breakfast had many options, and everything was just what I needed!!!
The street parking required some searching to find available spaces.

warm welcome hot beverage family room double beautiful room top floor alarm clock
The owner greeted us warmly upon our arrival. He offered a hot beverage. The family room worked great for our needs. It is hard to find rooms big enough for my family of five.
I booked a double beautiful room. Instead, I got a family room on the top floor. It was far from beautiful. The room lacked an alarm clock and an information pack.
