Wonderful stay!
nice locationhelpful hostfree parkingsmall bathroom
The location was very nice. I liked the short walk to the town center with its amenities. The host was friendly and helpful to everyone, and made sure we were settled. Parking on the hotel was free and very useful, I was happy.
The bathroom was very small. It was okay for one night though, I guess.
