convenient hotel reasonably priced.

This hotel met our needs for a family of four. The bathroom was a highlight for us with nice marbel details, heated floors. Very few rooms on our floor made us feel like we had our own large section of the hotel. The only issue I had was the lack of a public space to sit and read in the middle of the night when I couldn't sleep. I felt like I was imposing on the attendent who was lying on the couch resting in the parlour, and felt like I was imposing asking for a light to be turned on so I could see. I enjoyed the wine and small treats in the afternoon in the parlor. Would definiitely think of staying here againn.
