Perfect hotel with limited menu options in the restaurant. It may have been limited be ause of the winter months; however, a restaurant/bar closing at 8:00 p.m. is dramatically atypical.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Frankly, I wasn't expecting much considering the low price. Boy, was I wrong. The room was small but comfortably furnished, and clearly recently renovated. The bed was deliciously firm, the bathroom was cleverly laid out, and everything was spotless. The only negative I can scrape together was the small number of hangers - three-in the small closet. I was able to park close to my room, and, perhaps best of all, the soundproofing was excellent. Only when people walked by talking loudly did I hear anything. The receptionist was welcoming and efficient, and set the tone for my entire stay. I will definitely return in the future.
A super retro refrigerator!
