I have been always going for years to this hotel. Everything was good but this time we need to change rooms that smell cigarettes. And the smell of the rooms was a little more unpleasant . But overall is always a really good experience going . Breakfast is always wonderful and facility is very nice

Great place to stay.

This is a very nice place to stay. My only issue is that is seema to be slightly dated now in its appearance. But everything was nice and clean, and the staff is very friendly.
