Overall great stay

Had to move room after one day as some of the lights were not working. But once moved had no issues. Small rooms but to be expected for city centre hotel. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice.

Nice property in downtown at an affordable price, plus breakfast. The only complaint I have is the water - pressure was low and we had to call a couple of times because the water wasn’t heating up.

Valet parking was a little over priced, got charged for 2 days even though my car was only valet parked for 16 hours. But other than that a great stay. Hotel staff was great, especially front desk, and the staff in the lobby restaurant.
