Excellent Central Spot

central locationcoffee amenitiescomfy bedsmatched decor
The location was central. I could easily walk to attractions. The room had coffee and tea amenities, which i appreciated. Beds were comfy, assuring good rest after my travels. Decor choices were well-matched to the building's style.
There was no available parking on site, as noted in the description, so i had a short walk with my luggage, a bit of a pain.
