“Located in a lovely park with a pretty inn and well-kept public areas, it's easy to explore the town's historic area from here. It seems like the staff is friendly and helpful, particularly at the restaurant, but be prepared for potential temperature inconsistencies, where some areas can be freezing, and rooms may overheat even with thermostat adjustments.”
