This plays gets good reviews but still surprised me pleasantly. It's not flashy but perfectly decent, with clean, spacious, pleasant rooms in a great downtown location. Parking is free and the lot seems reasonably secure. All in all it’s a well run hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. I will definitely book again when I'm back in town.

The room was fine, if a bit shabby; the bed was comfortable. What really irked me was the breakfast. The made it appear that breakfast was some form of buffet, either a hot buffet or a cold one. The reality was a juice box and a muffin, with coffee at reception. This would be fine for a breakfast, but the lying in the ad is unconscionable. I will never stay here again.
