The room was modern and clean. Parking at the back of the hotel was free. Service was good. Bar was open, but no restaurant - not a problem as lots of options locally. Only negative was the the floor/ceiling creaked whenever the people above moved around.

The place was very clean and nice. there was a problem with the king mattress. It felt like a bar was in the upper portion so we had to sleep in the other bedroom. But location was great.
