"Great location, friendly staff, warm cookies on arrival, breakfast included was yummy too! Only thing we had a problem with was no elevator? I know it’s on 2 floors but we were on the 2nd floor and our luggage was very heavy to have to carry up a flight of stairs. Maybe not a problem for younger folk or light travelers but it was hard for us."
