The rooms are clean and comfortable The hotel has 2 buildings one with stairs only no elevator and the other has a small elevator this is important specially if you stay at 4 floor Also some rooms has tubs without shower head so you need to make sure from the booking if you want the shower head . otherwise the hotel location was very good we didn’t rent a car the streets in front of the hotel are small and fits only one way enough for one car no side parked cars I am not aware if they have a nearby parking area

Expedia listed my room as king bed and displayed pictures of a king room with a bathtub and shower, however when I checked it, it was a Queen bed with no bathtub! I contacted the hotel and Expedia and they were both wrong. They both tried to blame each other. The tv never connected to my iPhone so having a tv was useless. The safe wasn’t locking. The AC was difficult to use and we couldn’t change the temp. The staff was excellent and accommodating but we ran into quite a few issues. Also the rooms are all only accessible by stairs, lots of them!!! No views from the rooms we had! Overall we were fine with the room but would not rebook.
