It's a bit of an older hotel, but it is nice and clean, with friendly and helpful staff. The location is very convenient, right in the heart of downtown, making it easy to walk, shop, and dine at nearby restaurants. The staff can arrange easy transportation to the airport. I would definitely stay there again on my next visit.
