Hotel Leo
Pretty, historic hotel. Clean. Comfy bed. The basement has a library, theatre, laundry, and shuffle board (all in separate rooms). Friendly staff. Warm cookies at the front desk. On a Thursday night there was a book signing event and live music in the bar. The cocktails were great. Lots of restuarants ...
