Great older hotel. Staff were wonderful. There is an onsite bar and restaurant and the bartender was amazingly wonderful. Free breakfast in the morning had all the things (waffle & omelet stations) juice, coffee, fruit, pastries, etc. it’s an older building and it has some age but the beds were comfortable and the a/c worked well.
