Room european sized, but clean & comfortable. Staff very helpful, gave great tips on where to eat. Extremely pleasant! The price was terrific - infact I was a little worried that the hotel wouldn't be so great because of the price, but I would stay there again in a heart beat. Also, the location was perfect, easy walk to everywhere we wanted to go.

My online reservation was not honoured, and the staff were indifferent even when I made simple inquiries about the airport shuttle. I was given wrong information and overheard one staffer calling a hotel guest a 'jerk' without trying to keep her voice down. Hotel is nice, but staff aren't.
