Nice and quiet and meticulously clean. Henri was professional and efficient at the front desk. All staff were super friendly. The suites are a good size for two and include everything you need for a stay of one or several days. The laundry room (free) was an unexpected plus. I was able to do a couple loads before we hit the road. There is no breakfast but the hotel breakfasts are never good anyway so it wasnt missed!
