Friendly staff. No elevators that I know of. So I’d keep that in mind if you can climb stairs. Overall decent stay!
Pros:

Breakfast was great and staff was friendly. The beds were OK and the room fairly clean.

Cons:

Carpet was lifting up at the edge as soon as you came into the room. Room was decently clean. There weren’t any elevators that I know of. We did look around, but we couldn’t find any.
