convenient transportationshort walk
The hop-on-hop-off bus stop provided convenient transportation for two days of exploring. I found a fantastic grocery store a short walk away. It had everything I needed.
My room's shower door did not close completely. This caused some water to leak onto the bathroom floor.

variety of optionsnoisy bardifficult parking
the breakfast offered a variety of options, which i found acceptable.
The room i reserved was directly above the outside bar. It was very noisy. the hotel also hosts many functions, consequently facilities were closed to hotel guests (this was quite disruptive). parking was also an absolute nightmare. Finding a space was always difficult.

the breakfast buffet was quite expansive, offering a reasonable start to the day.
the room i booked, a classic double room mountain view, was not up to par. the bathroom was small. additionally, the television did not connect to any channels, nor could i access netflix, limiting my entertainment options in the evening.
