The location is great. Walking distance to the town center where a lot of restaurants and shops are located. The facility is old. Shower and wash products are Dove. Towels are old. The restroom facility is old and hard to adjust proper shower water temperature. TV set is very hard to use as well. The room is cozy and heating is great.

Room layout was horrible. The hotel entrance door was 2 feet from the bed, making it uneasy to sleep. Paid for 2 rooms with Balconys and 1 did not have a balcony. The fireplace did not work in one of the rooms and shower was dirty.

There’s no AC in the rooms and although it’s cold outside the room was too warm. The temperature was 75 and wouldn’t go lower even when we turned off the heater. After I complained they offered to give us a different room where the AC wasn’t working either but had a sliding door. We didn’t take it because the sun was hitting right where the sliding door was and that room felt warmer. So they offered us fan. The place was clean, staff was polite and friendly. Very nicely decorated for Christmas (lobby) but the whole no AC is really an issue.
