it was alright, i guess
limited selectionmusty smells
The breakfast was a bit of a letdown. It was supposed to be continental, but the selection was limited. i also noticed some musty smells in hallway. frankly, the decor needs some serious updating, the whole place feels dated. it looks like they are missing out on a real opportunity, i mean, it really could be something with a bit of effort.

The staff were helpful and friendly. There were plenty of parking spaces available and they were free. The room was clean and tidy with a reasonably comfortable bed..
There was a musty smell in the hotel. The coffee and tea in the room tasted awful, like water. There was no view from the room, a shame.
