I switched from another hotel that had a moldy smell and poor wifi, and I'm so glad I did. The welcome drinks were tasty, the bed was comfy, white sheets and clean towels, rooms are modern, hot water available for bathing and the wifi was good. The staff were friendly, and breakfast had great options. The hotel is in a walkable location, and service was excellent. Highly recommend!
