central location updated bathroom comfortable beds thin walls bad coffee closed restaurant
The hotel is centrally located near many restaurants. My room was clean. The bathroom seemed updated, especially the shower. Beds and pillows were very comfortable.
The walls seemed thin, and there was little sound proofing. The coffee was not good. I asked to buy Italian coffee from the restaurant, but it was closed.

central location ample parking low pressure old bed
the central location provided easy access to local restaurants. parking was directly outside the hotel (it was very convenient).
the shower had very low water pressure so washing hair was difficult. the bed was old and caused discomfort (it sunk in the middle).
