We wandered around the town centre, but ultimately chose the restaurant in the hotel: great cocktails, great atmosphere, great food (Mexican theme), great service. The breakfast restaurant has an in-house bakery. OMG forget the diet. Although centrally located, we enjoyed a nice quiet night. Woke to falling snow, what a bonus from the sheltered deck. Would stay again.

I liked the location and how central it is to everything , it was in a very tidy condition despite the age of the hotel. I wish that the shower had more pressure. I had a hard time getting enough water on me . The heating system in the room was very old and out of date, the heater was on the highest setting but we were still cold in the room
