Excellent Stay with Lovely Service

friendly staffclean roomfree parkingsofa bed stains
The staff was friendly and helpful. My room was very clean upon arrival. I appreciated the free parking available at the back and front of the hotel. It saved a lot of hassle! The location offers a convenient, short walk to the tram stop. It made exploring easy.
The pull-out sofa bed had some noticeable stains under the cushions. This was a bit disappointing and should be addressed with better maintenance.
