The breakfast kept its promise
I selected this hotel because of earlier review stating that the breakfast was highly praised.
And breakfast is important for me. :)
It was very good, tasty and had what is needed.
Room shower maybe a bit small But I liked my room very much.

Staff was wonderful! Only complaint is that the smoke alarm went off in the hotel due to a toaster! Got up at 7AM because someone in the dining room wanted crispy toast. So you're definitely safe here since their smoke alarms work really well.

Good walkable downtown location, yet we could street-park for free in front of the hotel. The hotel has a paid parking lot option as well. Room was nice and comfortable, and the breakfast was great.
