Room was comfortable and quiet. Staff were friendly and helpful. The location is very convenient, easy to walk to everything in the downtown area. Breakfast was a typical buffet but there were lots of choices and even a separate GF area with dedicated toaster. Lots of off street parking. If you have any issues with stairs make sure you book a first floor room as there is no elevator. Overall a great place to stay.
