Good location but I do not recommend it.
Pros: The location, the parking, the welcome and all the staff.
Cons: The bathroom is very old with floor tiles that are not joined and a shower door that did not close. And nothing to put our toiletry bag on. The mattress is soft and wider than the bed frame, causing us to fall off the bed when we are on the edges. The heat in the room - had to sleep with a fan and window open, so with all the noise from the heavy traffic at the intersection. This hotel does not live up to the BW brand and deserved a major renovation.

Location, staff and facilities made this stay as good as it was and what we needed it for!
Pros: Location was good, room was clean and size was ok for the time we stayed, staff were really obliging and food was lovely.
Cons: The fan we had in our room was a good idea but it did nothing, it was hot!
