Heated bathroom floors? At least mine felt heated. The room was great with the little kitchenette. Great breakfast. Close to the transit station. Very walkable.

The hotel is great but for us it’s the parking that makes the difference. Good, safe car park under the hotel which is chargeable extra, but it’s worth it.
