The selling point for this property is the location. There is a lovely walking path beside the hotel with lots of nice small restaurants and shops. The hotel itself is fine- but is definitely showing some wear and tear- old carpet, water spots, lots of dings in the furniture. The beds are comfortable which is a redeeming quality for the room.
