decent location, some disappointments
old decor broken hooks
The breakfast was okay. It included eggs, bacon, croissants and muffins.
The decor felt old, and some hooks in the bathroom were broken. This made it look cheap. there was unused space by the entrance in the room. this area could have been used for a table or dresser.

adequate stay with some disappointments
limited selection dull view
i found the breakfast quite basic. the selection was limited. the room i booked had a promised balcony, but it overlooked a rather dull service area, definitely not a picturesque view. it felt misleading, given the photos online showed much nicer balconies.

thin walls weak water pressure
the room felt a bit cramped. the bathroom definitely needed updating. the shower curtain was clinging and the water pressure was weak. also, the walls seemed thin, and i heard noise from the hallway at different times.

a decent stay
convenient location easy ac small room limited parking
the location was quite convenient. the ac unit was very easy to operate (i appreciated that detail).
My room was rather small, a bit of a squeeze. i also found the parking situation less than ideal. Only a few spots were available.

a sweet escape in the heart
charming garden comfy chair helpful staff easy parking
i found a cute space with a door to a small garden. a comfy chair and table sat there just for me. i walked to the market and then to the hill nearby. the staff gave all support i needed. parking felt surprisingly easy in the public garage. it was also cheap for my truck.
The elevator made so much noise. It disturbed my sleep at times.
