9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,004 reviews)
Lovely hotel with a great location. Kind staff. Only slight disappointment is that the fan in our bathroom did not work so it got a bit foggy. But outside of that very small thing this place was perfect.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,768 reviews)
"It was a good value. The room was very clean. The breakfast area was not tended to. There were no clean tables and the counters in front of the food needed to be wiped off and stray items thrown away. The food itself was good."
