The location of the hotel was in the center of all the places we wanted to visit, making our drive time very little for the places we visited. The hotel staff were very nice and honored any request we had. The hotel room was very clean and had a nice fragrance in the room the entire 4 days that we were there. The breakfast offered was just right, nothing too have. We were able to enjoy itvand still head out to explore the city in a timely manner. We couldn't have asked for anything more!
