This is a dark, gloomy hotel. It appears to have been built in the 60's and not updated since. The threadbare towels might have even been around then! The bed was comfortable however, and the room was clean. Check in was efficient, but when I was ready to check out I waited ten minutes before someone came to the desk. At breakfast I had to walk around the room to find a place with silverware. The Continental breakfast choices were fine, but the boiled eggs were all gone, and the scrambled eggs were dried up from sitting in a warmer for several hours. There was no employee around until halfway through my meal when someone came in and seemed very surprised that I was there (it was one hour before the published breakfast time ended). Finally I got coffee. It's too bad that this hotel is so bad because the setting is beautiful and many restaurants and shops are within easy walking distance. In its current state, however, I would not recommend it.
