Great location!! Lots of restaurants, stores and attractions nearby! Polite and efficient staff. Hearty breakfast. The beds are a little stiff, so of you have a sore back, etc, may not be your best option. But its a great hotel for short stays and you have everything you need. Thank you for the no-charge ...
