Nice facility, good location, good value.
Pros:

The property was a good location and the bed was very comfortable. The room was a suite and it was very nice. There are no bells and whistles. There was a closet to help your self to fresh towels and more coffee and creamers etc. But my husband and I are easy going. Not everyone will like the minimal attention. Maybe if we had wanted more interaction there would have been. But we would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

There wasn’t anything I didn’t like.

Over all it was a great trip and a quiet safe place to stay!
Pros:

It was in a great area; walkable to everything!

Cons:

A bit of work on convenience details in the rooms is needed. Such as a towel hook or rack right outside of the shower; not just across the room. Extra roll of toilet paper and possibly spoons to go with the kettle and tea.
