"The staff were very helpful and considerate, the rooms were clean, parking was sufficient. I thought the bed was too hard. The thermostat did not work in our room which we did not know until our second night when we needed heat. The staff was willing to offer another room, but we decided we just needed a couple of more blankets and did fine. Nice place to stay and close to everything."
