early bar closure shower door

the location was acceptable (though not particularly nice).

Honestly, the experience was a bit of a letdown. the bar was supposed to be open until late, but it closed much earlier. I was really looking forward to a nightcap. the shower door was also problematic. It kept falling off its hinges, quite annoying (like, seriously?).

friendly staff attentive staff cozy seating lively bar

I appreciate the staff. They was friendly and very attentive. The outdoor seating area provides a cozy feel. The bar had a lively atmosphere. I recommend this place.

The room was very basic, like a budget hotel room. I only had one set of towels for two guests. It wasn't the cleanest bathroom.
