We stayed during a busy event downtown and parking was limited. The front desk clerk went out of her way to help us find parking. Hotel is older with a very historic feel. It is clean and the location can’t be beat for downtown activities.

Very comfortable bed but the hotel is a little outdated. The bedroom was small, only one bedside table and a microwave perched on top of a small fridge. A nice breakfast in the conservatory with waffles, yoghurt, cereals and fresh fruit.

Our room was nice but very small! The only complaint was that if you're staying on the weekend and want some peace and quiet, you won't get it. There is a few restaurants close by that blast their music until around 2 am. If you want to get away from the noise, ask for a room closer to the park that is behind the hotel. :)
