Amazing ROI - while the property is slightly dated, and breakfast is simple coffee and bakery - you get a clean room, with very nice firm bed. You are out all day, just need to spend a night - why pay more? Bunch of nice restaurants across the street as an added bonus.

The property and room were fine. The room could use better lighting. There is no overhead light. The desk lamp was missing a bulb and a finial to hold the shade in place. I was provided a bulb by the front desk upon request but, the lamp was completely non-functional.
