It’s in the heart of town. Getting in and out by car was challenging but we gave the keys to the hotel staff and walked everywhere during our 2 night stay.

Great location and fantastic room. Special mention has to go to the concierge/bell boy. He was fantastic. Excellent service every day of my stay. He helped me park my particularly long car and looked after me well. Always very happy and super friendly. He made my stay.
