The room had a spacious balcony which I could get to from the living room. According to the staff, this room is the only room with a balcony. Maybe all the rooms looked spacious because there is a balcony.

IMG_0723.jpg (16)

The balcony had a table and four chairs, and it has no roof, so I was able to do computer work while looking up at the sky.

The bedroom was also spacious. The bed was kept clean and I was able to get a good nights sleep.

There is a shower room at the back, but there was no partition and it was spacious.

IMG_0723.jpg (38)

The shower head was fixed on the wall. The water pressure was a little weak, but I thought it was deliberate to avoid overflow.

IMG_0723.jpg (43)

In the shower room, bottles of body soap, shampoo and conditioner were prepared. It was a brand called TEA TREE and the quality was normal.

IMG_0723.jpg (36)

The Jacuzzi was large enough for two people to get inside, and even large enough for a whole family as well. The design was retro.

IMG_0723.jpg (30)

There was soap on the bathtub.

Mini bar and cafe

There is a kitchen in the room which was convenient. A microwave and refrigerator was also installed. There was nothing in the refrigerator, and it was nice to be able to cool beer that I bought.

There is also a cafe corner with a coffee maker, regular coffee and a decaf coffee. The taste was normal.

IMG_0723.jpg (33)

Also, I got a small gift bag with water, a small bag of chips and an energy bar when I checked in.

There was an outdoor pool. It was small but nice with a jacuzzi.

Environment around the hotel

Around the hotel, there were some homeless people siting around. Not only around the hotel, but I saw many around Old Town. They begged for money, but did not come near me. The street where the restaurant is located is bright and it was safe to walk around, but the area around Old Town Amtrak station is not very safe.

Access

The hotel is close to the airport. As it is right next to the highway exit, access by car was convenient. You can also walk from Amtrak’s Old Town Station. It is perfect for sightseeing in Old Town, and you can enjoy walking around. There are restaurants that are relatively late that are within walking distance.

Summary

I would definitely like to come and stay in the same room again! The rooms were very spacious, and I was able to have a nice and relaxing stay. Having a jacuzzi, a bathtub, and an open shower was the best part. This hotel is located in Old Town, so everything is within walking distance. I enjoyed my stay very much, and I highly recommend staying at this hotel.
