The staff showed real kindness, helping us settle in easily. Free parking was available right outside, a wonderful convenience. I discovered walking routes from the hotel. These maps made exploration simple.

I found the room had a slightly peculiar layout. The bed was downstairs just as you enter, while the toilet and bathroom were upstairs. This took a bit of getting used to
