Jeanne United States of America

Room was nice. Wasn't able to do breakfast because we had to leave too early to catch our flight. Parking wasn't very expensive, but only had to pay because we used booking

Diane United States of America

Hammond United States of America

Comfortable bed staff lovely . Only slight negative no standard beers like Budweiser or coots light available

Irene Ireland

Breakfast was amazing. 11 euros was the best money I could've spent that day anywhere. There were few other options in the immediate area on a Saturday AM so the quality and selections was greatly appreciated. Exceeded expectations. Also the coffee shop and lobby are nice to relax or get a refreshment even if you're not staying there. The restaurant next door is a convenient option for a quick bite. They also have continuous room service in the hotel. We stayed on the 2nd floor and noise was reasonable other than a few doors or late talkers in the hall. Location was pretty enjoyable and relaxing

Brian United States of America

Modern, clean, hotel in a good location for where we were going. The staff were friendly & helpful. The room was clean, well appointed & spacious. Breakfast was excellent, plenty of choice & well presented. Overall I would stay there again & recommend the hotel.
