Pros:

Le stanze sono molto spaziose e ho apprezzato il bollitore con offerta di caffè e tè

Cons:

La struttura dovrebbe essere rimodernata. Le stanze seppur grandi includono letti matrimoniali molto piccoli, non c’era un frigobar nonostante ci fosse uno spazio apposito. Personalmente non preferisco la moquette e la rimuoverei

Pros:

The hotel had charm. The rooms were roomier then expected and comfortable.

Cons:

The restaurant was horrible. There were 7 of us dining and everything we ordered was very salty. It was not edible.
Also, they do not have an elevator from the parking garage to the hotel..
