It’s a treat to have had 2 bathrooms in the room for a family of 3. The beds were very comfortable and gave us a restful sleep. The location is convenient—just a short walk to the old town. Hotel parking is a 7-minute walk.

Loved this hotel! It was central to everything and very walkable. We had a car and were able to park, but they do need to figure out a way to give your pass for parking without having to return it because you can’t easily drop up to the hotel The staff were very sweet and the hotel was so cool and eclectic would definitely stay there again
