For the price I would not stay here again. The rooms are ok but nothing great and are certainly showing their age. The breakfast was not very good. The best feature was that it was within walking distance of downtown.

Breakfast leaves a lot to be desired (wet eggs, floppy over-thin bacon), but otherwise, it’s a great view, friendly and professional staff, clean room, comfortable stay.
