I parked right out front. Decals were sold at reception. It was much cheaper than a car park.

the location was great for exploring. it was near dining options and public transportation. our room had a reading nook with a sofa under the windows.

the bathroom door stuck when closed. it had to be pushed open from the other side. mould was visible in the bathroom. i could hear the tv and conversation in the next room.
