Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very classic look. Loved the look of the decor. Very spacious room for the price but still very cozy. Super comfortable bed! Only source of light were lamps spread out around the room so room was dimly lit. Heating took awhile to warm up the room. Most affordable room in the area at the time of booking.
