quick walk comfortable room hotel location
The hotel location gives great access to town. A quick walk gets you there. I will stay here again for sure. The room looks newly done and very comfortable.
A small radiator gave heat. The room did not get warm enough.

The luxury rainfall shower in the ensuite bathroom made mornings special , and the soft , white towels were a gentle touch. I found the bed supremely comfy , resulting in restful sleep. Check-in was swift , and I experienced no hassles. I also really liked the modern , clean room.

Weekend Getaway Bliss
comfortable bed easy parking
I appreciated the queen size bed. It was very comfortable. Staff communicated the check-in system WELL. Parking was also very easy right on the road, totally free.
The room was very hot. The window was small and high up. SLEEP was difficult, so I left early after only two nights.
Location

The hotel is close to the centre. It is only an 8-minute walk. The location provides convenient access to the twin centre. AMAZING!!!
