The location of the hotel was a perfect walk down the main street and was close to all of the bus stops. It is also conveniently located a lot of restaurants. The front desk staff were super friendly and accommodating, and the cleaning staff did a great job. Our room was perfect for the week long stay. Having a small kitchenette with the basic utensils and pots and pans were perfect! I would easily stay here again at my next visit!
