8.6/10 Excellent! (546 reviews)
"Great location!!! Just feet away from Old Town. There is no parking nearby though. It’s about a 10 minute walk. The only frustrating thing about this hotel was my key would always stop working so after a long day I would have to go all the way back down to the lobby to reactive my key."
