Great hotel in Brunswick
Pros:

Have stayed here before and will stay again, the location is perfect for and the comfort of the rooms is good. Had a great sleep in the bed and it is very easy to check in / out.

Cons:

I was unlucky to be placed in a room above the smokers area and until about 9:45pm had cigarette smoke intermittently coming through the closed window cracks. I suppose you can get that when staying at a hotel but being pregnant, I found it a bit rough.
