8/10 Good
"The location is excellent. It allowed me to park on my first day and walk to all the places I wanted to visit from there. The room and bathroom were both very good, although I would have preferred a better view. The room description did not mention that the view was partially obstructed. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay here again."
