Mixed feelings about this stay
paved area view poor service
The location was acceptable, being right in the centre of things.
The room I booked did NOT have the city view I expected. Instead, it faced a paved area between buildings. I also found the staff to be SLACK and the service poor.

The breakfast included local produce, it was tasty. I liked the valet parking option, it made things easier. I thought the staff was great, they parked my car promptly. The location worked well, it offered prime access.
The room was very warm. I also noticed some tired decor. I thought I requested twin beds, but did not receive them. I was not happy to see the shower curtain.

The location was quite convenient.
The room I received, a "Classic Room", showed signs of wear. Peeling paint in the bathroom detracted from the experience. I encountered some issues regarding the clarity of parking instructions. Contradictory information from the staff led to UNNECESSARY stress.
