Excellent Hotel Experience
accommodating serviceconvenient parking arearelaxing dinnershort lift ride
The staff offered accommodating service. The parking area behind the building was convenient. I enjoyed dinner as part of my stay, relaxing after a long day exploring the city. It was nice knowing my room was just a short lift ride away. I definitely plan to return.
The bar floors needed to be cleaner. They felt quite sticky when walking, a little unpleasant.

Satisfactory Stay, Some Issues

The train station was very close. It was just feet away. The staff was helpful. The hotel had a lot of character, unlike modern hotels today.
The room was clean and cozy, but it was super hot. I managed to open a window, which helped with the temperature. The key card failed to work every time I went back to my room. This meant a trip back down to reception.
