The staff was super friendly, the room was comfortable, clean and spacious. I My 90 year old mom and 2 sisters stayed in the penthouse. The beds where comfy and cozy and warm enough for my 90 year old mom. It was suprisingly cold and rainy for june so the spaces ability to warm up the loft space was a great accomadation.

I would stay again.

Pulling up I was skeptical as the area is a bit run down. That being said, it seems to be an up and coming area. Great hotel outside of the city. Very clean, pleasant staff and the room was great. There are only 16 rooms so it was nice and quiet.
