I previously stayed at this hotel in 2019. Then, as now, the hotel staff made our stay memorable. They were/are warm and friendly, and very helpful. While the hotel has had a facelift, it is the people who make a stay memorable or not. …

Standard rooms very basic and small
We were given a room that had 13 steps to go up to. No elevator no ramp. Unexpected. Very nice staff. Nice to have restaurant there. Minimal vegan options and nothing for breakfast but fruit. Unexpected as most places we have good have vegan options. Room super small.
