Had a nice stay at the hotel which is in a good location for Christmas shopping. Breakfast was very nice. Only downside was that the music from the Christmas parties at the hotel was quite noisy in our room.

Nice stay, convenient location & pleasant staff. I Can only comment on the particular room we stayed in (305) but more attention required with cleaning. Thick layers of dust on the lights . Inadequate heating for a hotel of this size to be using a small plugged in electric oil filled heater placed in the middle of the room.
