Guest Reviews
- Letha (10/5): Love this place! - This was my second visit to the Royal Amsterdam this year. I visited in May with my sister, and decided to return this month (October) on my own for three nights. I splurged and got a suite with a separate living room, and bedroom with king size bed. The room was great. Everything was spotless and comfortable. The bathroom was huge and had an awesome shower! Location is fantastic. You're within easy walking distance of pretty much everything. Couldn't have ask for anything more.
The front desk staff was all friendly and helpful. I plan to return!
- sparrowhawk60 (8/5): Really great, but... - Spending 2 days in Pella were great; biking the Volksweg Trail and looking around town were very relaxing. Our stay at the Royal Amsterdam Hotel was just as good. Location couldn't be beat, rooms were very spacious, plush soft towels, great pillows. comfy bed and all the staff was very friendly. Really, a terrific experience, until you got to breakfast. Biscuits and gravy, (which I love) hard boiled eggs, bread, English muffins (moldy), a few pastries and 2 choices of cold cereal along with milk(which was sour) and juice. I've stayed at enough places to experience a really good breakfast, this was a major disappointment for what we were paying for on a nightly basis. I don't need much, but for other travelers in our group and myself, it left me saying "This is all?"
- Coastal31039843187 (2/5): The manager is the rudest woman I have ever encountered - We had originally booked two rooms, our daughter went into preterm labor and had to cancel their trip, for obvious reasons. We called 72 hours in advance to let them know we wouldn’t need the room, to give them time to sell the room to someone else. Their published website says that their cancellation policy is 48 hours. The nice woman who took the call told us no different.
Upon check in the younger girl tells me my total for the weekend was 1300$. I said that’s 2 rooms and we cancelled. Her response was “Noni said to bill you anyway.” I explained that we had called and gave 72 hours notice and that it was a health issue (baby) that couldn’t be avoided. She gave us the key for the room and when I went to the room it was the king bed, we had our granddaughter so we needed the queens. My husband went back down to get the other room key, and a man was inquiring about a room and my husband says “here. I have a room and here’s the key.” She immediately tells the man that since we had the key the room was “dirty”. She said the hotel was booked and they couldn’t sell our other room in time so that’s why we had to pay for it. Obviously a lie. That night my husband asked a worker if they were booked and he said no that they had 4 rooms left. They were just trying to screw us to get the money for the room not honoring their cancellation policy.
Throughout the weekend the front desk treated us horribly. It completely ruined our trip. I didn’t mention we have been booking here for the past 8 years.
Upon check out I had the pleasure of Noni. I was absolutely calm until I explained my daughter having a preemie baby and her reply was “THAT’S NOT MY PROBLEM”. She and her sidekick were insipid and hateful. I explained that if they changed policy for Nationals weekend it needed posted and we should have been informed when we called. It was absolutely horrible. She told me “the Super 8 will be happy to have you”. All because I wouldn’t be bullied by this rat faced woman.
The owners really need to evaluate the quality of staff they have. I own my own business and customer retention and relationships is everything. I would fire any one of my employees who acted like these two. I lost it and left them with a serious “go eff yourselves “ only after I had been ganged up on with their insults and hatefulness. Until they change mangers and help we will take our business to Oskaloosa. I’m sure the local business owners will appreciate Noni’s comments as they depend on tourism for their survival. The amount of money we spent locally was a lot. We brought friends who live close to Pella. We won’t do it again. I’m sure the Super 8 will appreciate my business. They don’t.
- U10GKrussells (10/5): Good experience - Friendly staff. Large clean spacious rooms. Beautiful historic district with a lot of food options close by. There is also a restaurant in the building
- AGunst (8/5): Great stay until the end - We had a wonderful stay until the very end. The room was large and the towels were some of the softest I have ever felt. The bed was comfortable and the air worked really well, even with the high temperatures outside. The staff was kind and check in was easy. When we were getting ready to leave our third floor room, my husband went down the elevator first to get the car. I got in the elevator a few minutes later and the elevator door closed. I pushed the button for the first floor and nothing happened. I tried the second floor button and the elevator did not move. When I hit the third floor button, a loud fire alarm began to sound inside the elevator. It was deafening. I called the front desk and they contacted the fire department and the elevator company. Long story short, I was stuck in the elevator for right around 20 minutes with the alarm going off the entire time and no air flow. The staff along with my husband and a police officer were able to get the door open. The fire department never came (even though they are located right next door). The staff gave us waters and apologized but there was no form of compensation given. The staff did say that they had issues with the elevator prior to that morning.
- lethaanna (10/5): Wonderful stay!! - We stayed three nights the second week of May. The hotel and it's location are absolutely wonderful! Staff was all very welcoming and friendly. Our room on the top floor overlooked the canal and it was so pretty, especially at night when all the lights were on. The room itself was spotless. The beds/pillows were very comfortable, as was the chair. It was very quiet. We never heard a peep while we were there.
Breakfast is a little limited, but we loved the sausage gravy over biscuits every morning, as well as the coffee maker that gives you a lot of choices.
I chose to use the underground parking because the hotel's central location allows you to walk to most places. We only got the car out one time the entire time we were there.
We truly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Pella. I'll most certainly be back!
- nelis_jp (10/5): Our visit during Tulip Time - We visited the Amsterdam Hotel in Pella during Tulip Time a couple of years ago. I hold very warm memories to this place: the rooms were good, the staff was very hospitable and we had a very enjoyable time during the festivities in Pella. Due to it's central location, the Hotel is within walking distance of all the Dutch themed attractions and festivities, like the windmill, the museum and the "canal" (which is fake, because there are no bike wrecks in it). Thanks a lot guys! If I'd ever visit Pella again, I know where I will be staying!
- jamesvS9551VO (4/5): Management needs improvement - Stayed here many times in the past. But this will be the last. Management has gone down hill big time. Stayed in a suite on the third floor. Garage is in the basement. No working elevator. They only have one and when it’s not working it means 4 flights of stairs. I understand that things breakdown but their attitude was “oh it was weather related”
Breakfast was marginal.
One thing positive is that it was still very clean.
When I suggested they take a day off the bill since my wife with knee problems had to negotiate 4 flights of stairs and I had to handle the luggage 4 flights they said no.
Won’t be back.
- A9744ISshannons (10/5): Wonderful First Time in Pella! - My family and I are loving the stay here so far! It is very convenient and easy to walk into town. The staff are pleasant and open to answering any questions you have. The rooms are spacious and clean making for a very comfortable stay! Overall, this hotel is making for a lovely first trip to Pella.
- juliepE6664NV (8/5): Girls trip is a success - We take a girls' trip to Pella annually and would not consider staying anywhere else! Love the professionalism of the staff, the comfortable beds, and the shower! The only drawback was the breakfast. They were out of a lot of items and slow to restock. Would be nice to include fresh fruit and Dutch letters.
- Jill (10/5): Pampered experience - Beautiful hotel with comfortable beds and bedding. Nice architectural details. Clean and staff was very friendly. Felt pampered staying here.
- Pamela (8/5): - Property was lovely, clean, and close to everything. The area was gorgeous and woth a Christmastime visit. Make plans for breakfast - the onsite breakfast is awful. The walls between rooms were quite thin.
- Corey (10/5): Great stay in Pella - Nice hotel I'm the heart of Pella. Great bar and restaurant area and really nice rooms.
- Leigh (10/5): - Staff very friendly and helpful. Gave us an extra half hour for check out.
- Logan (10/5): - 👍
- Leslie (10/5): - What a hidden gem! Rooms were beautiful. Bedding was super comfy and cozy. Bath towels were fluffy. Staff was kind and informative. Very quiet at night. 10 out of 10 would stay here again. Absolutely pleasantly surprised♥️♥️♥️
- Verified traveler (10/5): Pella trip. - It was a great hotel. Centrality located. We could walk everywhere. Restaurant was excellent!!
- William (10/5): Best hotel in town - Great hotel. Very nice room. Bathroom was a little “tight”. Bed was very comfy, plenty of pillows! My wife and I will stay again. Pella is amazing!
- Rob (8/5): Worthless Reservation - I reserved a king bed room and received a two-queen bed room. As a solo traveler and a 6’-5”, this is annoying. It happens way too frequently. What good is a reservation if it’s swapped out or given away? The rooms are not the same and it’s not what I asked for.
- CrossgarDown (10/5): A beautiful hotel overlooking Dutch Pella - What a delightful surprise! The staff were warm, welcoming and helpful and the rooms are much classier than I would have expected in a small town in central Iowa. So refreshing! And the hotel restaurant, Liberty Street, is an absolute gem! I'll be giving it five stars in a separate review!!
- juliepE6664NV (10/5): Fantastic experience - Outstanding within walking distance to all the cute shops Rooms are spacious and well done but could use paint touch ups and work on the trim. Breakfast needs fresh fruit and they were out of items on a busy Saturday. The person working seemed overwhelmed. Not a great experience for us.
- michaelbC1435LV (10/5): A class hotel in a beautiful city.. - Class place. Excellent atmosphere, Almost regal. Spacious, comfortable rooms with excellent beds. Right in the heart of town, making walking this beautiful downtown area and the environs easy. Restaurant was very good as well.
- Robin (10/5): A long, clean night. - The room was very clean. However the air conditioner/combo heat pump was extremely loud all night long.
- Maria (10/5): - The property is in a great location. You can walk easily to shops, restaurants, and museums. The hotel was immaculate and beautiful. Highly suggest staying here when visiting Pella, Iowa.
- tomnmargie (10/5): A hidden gem - A wonderful hotel in the middle of downtown Pella in easy walking distance to the town square & all shopping. We drive up there about 3 times a year just to get away & relax. The hotel has a fine dining restaurant on the premises that we enjoy & the town has many small boutique shops that we can browse. It also has one of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to since moving back to the Midwest.
- NEVenturer (10/5): Beautiful hotel - Beautiful Hotel - Great Location
This hotel looks historic from the outside, but is surprisingly modern. It’s in a great location close to many of the historic sites.
There is a charge for parking, but it is convenient on the lower level.
They do provide a breakfast, but we left some suggestions about how that might go better for the customers. There is a microwave. Their is a trick to getting hot water. The food is in line with the Culture, but not necessarily going to fit your nutritious needs. Some fruit would be helpful. I’m allergic to gluten and dairy so there were definite limitations!
The staff was very accommodating at all times, and their hotel was impeccably clean. I would definitely stay there again.
- Mary (2/5): Disappointed - We didnt get to stay there as the reservation was bogus. Will never use hotel.com again.
- Jennifer (10/5): - This is a great property in Pella. It’s close to everything. The staff and hotel were great. Rooms were large and spacious.
- Miki (10/5): - Perfect stay. Clean room with a wonderful view. Location was amazing, walked to food and shopping.
- Diana (10/5): - The location of the property was excellent.
- Coastal396081 (10/5): Bridge camp - Lovely hotel with excellent service. Close to gorgeous tulips and charming shops. Our first time Pella would love to come back.
Eight of us are playing bridge in the suite and having a wonderful time.
- Sally (10/5): - I love this hotel. It has wonderful rooms with thick soft terry towels; and it is within the city center. Many dining options, along with unique shops, makes this hotel within its beautiful environment perfect for families and friends to gather together.
- Shannon (10/5): - Practically perfect in every way.
- Paula (10/5): - Pella is a wonderful town. Great shopping and restaurants within walking distance. Love it
- scottcG1488TD (10/5): Nice Htel great resturaunt, avoid Des Moines. - We really enjoyed our stay and the restaurant was great. Our GPS (coming from the West) directed us through Des Moines this was an awful horrible route choice. Much slower than the alternative, and the parts of Des Moines it takes you through are ugly (and the gas prices I saw were ridiculously high). On the way back we ignored the GPS and took a state route to the interstate, it was much faster and much more pleasant. Final note Pella has parallel streets East first and west First our GPS directed us to West First.
- Alexa (10/5): - Beautiful, the staff was amazing! The dinner was incredible! Loved the corn chowder soup
- Carol (8/5): - It was a nice stay. Breakfast was not very good, real oatmeal would have been better than the vat of gravy and dried out biscuits.
- palemaka (10/5): Outstanding hotel - I stayed at this hotel for two nights in early June. Everything was perfect for me. The underground secure parking, the adequate (very good fresh pastries) breakfast, very clean room with a comfortable bed and two chairs in a seating area, very close walking distance to the town square (two minute walk) and pleasant front desk personnel all made this a pleasant stay for me.
And special thanks to Beverly who rescued me from a different part of the building because I got on the incorrect elevator. Thank you again Beverly.
A very nice hotel in a very cute walkable historic town.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very comfortable and pleasant stay. Beautiful hotel and fun interesting surroundings. Staff was pleasant and helpful. We will definitely recommend your hotel to friends and family!
- Don (10/5): - Room was ready when we arrived. Nice and clean. Breakfast was continental style and included Dutch pastries which were excellent!
- Katherine (10/5): - It was centrally located amongst many stores. It was clean and the staff was friendly. It wasn't noisy and there was a great view!
- jelmutiger (8/5): Nice place in the center of Pella - We stayed here one night as we were making our way to Minneapolis. We were impressed with the rooms and the restaurant was really nice as well. The breakfast was a bit underwhelming but overall a very nice experience in a quaint little town.
- CharlesArmyBrat55 (10/5): eqrly visit to Tulip time - had no issue with getting a room since weather was really poor. hotel was on the square, clean and very spacious. Breakfast was good. location is fantastic. price a little high but we accepted it. beds were very good.
- Frick (10/5): Lovely hotel in prime location - Perfect location, situated in the Molengracht Plaza along the canal. The decor is simple, yet modern. The elevator, hallways and room smelled fresh and clean. My king room was indeed roomy; the bed, very comfortable with lots of pillows; a nice desk and lamp for writing. My room (206) looked out at the Vermeer Windmill. Comfy seating area by the window was nice to sit and look outside. Nice continental breakfast with delicious local pastries! Within walking distance to the quaint shops, bakeries and coffee shops. Will definitely stay here again.
- pamhQ9235XZ (10/5): Lovely Stay - This hotel is right in the heart of downtown Pella. We stayed there for the Christmas Festival. Everything we did we walked to accept one house on the home tour. Downtown has limited dining options. We did have to drive away to eat at a place where we could sit down, relax, and eat. The Peanut Pub in town serves only alcohol. We did see people order pizza from across the street and bring it in to eat while drinking. The hotel has a restaurant but it is a little pricey when you are looking for something like a Cesar salad and a burger. The hotel is clean and quiet. Rooms had plenty of space. They include a fridge, microwave, and a small coffee maker. Pro-tip, I saw someone take down the pot from their coffee maker, fill it with coffee, then return to his room where he kept it warm as he drank a few cups.
Clever! Free breakfast included 2 different pastries, 2 cereals, some frozen yogurt. There were also bags of instant oatmeal and hot water. Limited but free. Overall, lovely stay.

- Todd (8/5): - Within walking distance to all the main attractions
- Harold (10/5): - Hotel was very nice. The morning breakfasts were very poor. Overall the hotel was very over priced
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The hotel itself was nice but with staying there for a huge event the night before we spoke up super hungry and lokking forward to almost no options for breakfast and not a hot breakfast. Unfortunately it is one of our non negotiables when having to pay 220 for a room. We also heard others complaining about this as well. We booked somewhere else for next year but if the breakfast options changed in the future we would consider coming back.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Clean, friendly welcoming staff
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Location to downtown is awesome, room was very nice. Parking is interesting, no real directions or signs on where to park and where to enter hotel as you are circling the block the building is on.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Clean hotel with friendly staff full of great recommendations on things to do and see!!! Located right next to tons of fun activities
- LOWELL (10/5): A mini Vacation - We spent two nights at the Royal Amsterdam Hotel, rooms were clean, bed was comfortable, and the continental breakfast had some great pastries from there local bakery.
- khagen2021 (8/5): Summer trip to tour parts of Iowa - This is a great hotel, a bit pricy, but one of the nicest hotel rooms I've stayed in. We had a gorgeous view of the town center and it was located directly across from the historical museum. Parking to unload luggage is tricky but there is free parking located behind the hotel. Their free breakfast is very limited and their bar closes before 10:00 p.m. but overall this was a good hotel.
- Dean (10/5): - Perfect
- Anna (10/5): - Wonderful!! We fell in love with the whole area!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Best location for exploring Pella
- Murra_Meyer (6/5): Average - Stayed in a suite. Had a mattress that was too soft to be comfortable. Phone by bed at far end of suite (and only phone in either room) didn't work. Toilet paper holder was falling off wall. Sofa was saggy, too. TVs didn't swivel for better viewing from any seating other than directly in front of them. Expected better for the price.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was a nice place for that town, i would highly recommend it
- SuZQ415 (10/5): Tulip Time Treasure - My husband and I enjoyed our second stay at the Royal Amsterdam last week.
The property has been totally renovated since our last visit in 2017. The sleek and modern look was a big change from the previous more traditional decor.
We found the "new look" very nice, however it lacked a bit of warmth to be honest.
However, the room was immaculate, and very comfortable. One minor complaint would be that the toilet was so low. With all the renovation it would have been nice to have the higher style (especially for older folks!) The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring Pella. We came to town for the Tulip Time Festival, and were only a short distance away from the town square and the gorgeous tulips.Quaint shops and bakeries were very close as well.
The view from our room was beautiful with the canal and foot bridge so charming!
We did not dine at the new restaurant on the property, which was quite expensive, but we enjoyed the complimentary continental breakfast in the lobby area.The front desk staff were very nice, and check in was quick. Pella is a very friendly place, and we look forward to visiting again, and staying at this lovely hotel .
- JANET (10/5): Perfect - Friendly front desk staff, great location, beautiful, clean, nicely appointed room, and lovely area. We will be back soon.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very clean and the staff very friendly and helpful
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Did an early season visit to Pella. Because of the temps the moat didn’t have water. The hotel was nice. Comfortable bed, good pillows. The on-site restaurant had great food however make reservations as it fills up fast on the weekends. Prime location to stay for the tulip festival. Is it worth the price? Yes if you want to be within walking distance of all the downtown amenities otherwise it is a very overpriced hotel.
- Victoria (10/5): Family visit - Lovely. Super-clean and attractive, very comfortable beds, staff very friendly and helpful. Eat at the restaurant - food is delicious.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very welcoming experience. Location is perfect for the town. Will absolutely be back again.
- Brandon (10/5): Will return - Everything was modern inside and amazingly classic on the outside. Everything was great.
- Anthony (10/5): - Great location, the in house restaurant was one of the best in Pella. Service was great all around and right in the heart of town!
- Julie (10/5): Great Destination! - Beautiful, luxury hotel with full service restaurant in walking distance of shops and other sites. Visiting in the spring, when the tulips bloom would be even more impressive.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was a clean room and the hotel location is great. The hotel is equivalent to any basic chain though. Not worth the much higher price.
- Nigel (6/5): - This is my second review of this hotel. The staff there varies a lot, some extremely
helpful, others not so much. The location is
good, rooms are clean and modern, the restaurant is excellent (as long as you avoid the steaks), but the breakfast is terrible. No better than you would find in a very inexpensive hotel. This is a two star hotel at a four star price.
- Nigel (6/5): - The Hotel is OK. Rooms are fine, lobby is sparse and the breakfast was very very basic for a hotel at this price point. Its actually worse than you can expect at a Hampton Inn. I am not sure if this is because it was in the middle of the Coronavirus outbreak, but I doubt it because the full service restaurant was open for lunch and dinner. The restaurant was fine for basic menu items (sandwiches and salads), but don't order the steaks, the quality of the meat was bad, it was overcooked, and over-salted. The other thing I didn't like was that the waitstaff did not wear masks. This is especially dangerous because they are handling, and breathing on food.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Spacious, clean rooms. Will definitely return.
- AColeman (6/5): - Free parking was across the street. Underground parking was available but required an additional $7. The free breakfast was horrible. Not much to choose from. For the amount charged by this hotel they could definitely have a wider breakfast selection and free underground parking.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Bathrooms were VERY small. Hard to close door when using shower and/or toilet. Clean and updated facilities.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Pleasantly surprised business traveler - Newly remodeled hotel is very nice. Toiletries are not the greatest. Nobody at the front desk until you ring the bell.
- Megan (8/5): Nice, newly renovated hotel! - We stayed at the hotel for two nights. The hotel was very nice and clean, and it was recently renovated. We also got to try their new attached restaurant which was excellent. The only real negative about the hotel were the pillows. Neither of us were able to sleep well either night because the pillows were awful. But otherwise everything else was great!
- Marc (10/5): Top shelf restaurant and bar - Best place to stay in Pella and a fantastic top shelf restaurant and bar within hotel.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location. The only problem was that the front desk was not staffed, hence long waits for anything.
- Steve (8/5): - Very nice hotel located very near the beautiful Pella square.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice down town hotel - Very nice place. We stayed on the second floor in a corner room. It was recently remodeled. Four windows on two sides of the room. Bed was very comfortable. Check in was amazing. Checked in early and was greeted by a very friendly and helpful staff.
- Tammy (10/5): Love Pella! - Bra hotel in a charming town!
- Dennis (8/5): - The nicest things about this hotel are its exterior appearance and the immediate neighborhood. Inside there isn't much special or "royal" about the hotel, the rooms or the complimentary breakfast. A similar room could be had for perhaps half the price. So it was a one time stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice renovation but few things are needed. - Something to hang towels/washcloths at sink area is needed. A microwave in breakfast area is needed - The hot water container was not working.
- Mary (10/5): - Close to the town square and the museum
- Dee (10/5): - Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Room nice and clean. Mattress wasn't great
- Michael (10/5): Only place to stay in Pella! - I can’t say enough good things about the hotel and the area. Within 2 blocks of everything I would want to do in pella. Gorgeous hotel. Great staff
- Jane (8/5): Close to downtown Pella, Iowa - Nice hotel with friendly staff. One draw back would be the parking. Parking lot across the street and had stairs to go up to get to hotel. Had some difficulty trying to get room door open, but eventually got in. I
- Michael (10/5): Great place!! - The best location in town. Gorgeous hotel / gorgeous room.. will definetly return
- Dick and Kathy (10/5): Perfect location for Pella visit - We enjoyed our stay in the Royal Amsterdam; it is close to nearly everything we came to see.
- Bernie G (8/5): Pleasant stay - The hotel is being updated. Nice facilities . Good location. Via restaurant in the hotel was exceptional . Would recommend others to stay here .
- Verified traveler (8/5): Pella Beauty - It was great to be in Pella on the Wednesday prior to the tulip festival itself. Beautiful garden beds.
- Bonnie (10/5): - My family & I really enjoyed our stay at The Royal Amsterdam. We plan to stay there for all future trips to Pella, IA. The staff was friendly, helpful, personable, and knowledgable. It took less than 2 minutes to check-in and we were guided to basement parking which is extremely helpful with children. We loved that we didn't have to get in our vehicle even once during our stay; instead the hotel is within walking distance to just about everything!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Convenient hotel - Visiting family in the area. Love to walk everywhere! Such a cute, clean town! The only thing I suggest to the Royal Amsterdam is to mix up their breakfast a little. Biscuits and Gravy, boiled eggs, yogurt every morning got a little old by the 5th morning. Add a banana, scrambled eggs/bacon, may be nice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Quaint hotel -
Walking distance to Central College. Beautiful downtown area.
- mark (10/5): - Good food at the Hotel Restaurant (Monarchs)
Convenient parking garage!
- c (8/5): Ok hotel close to everything. - Their description is luxuriously decorated. That is not the case. The outside is beautiful. Perfect location in the heart of everything. But the room was very simple and somewhat disapointing after the reading the description. Plain white linens. Simple standard bath with shower above a bath. Carpet is old. Clean but very standard features. No pool and no gym. Free breakfast was very disappointing with very minimum fare.
- Penny (8/5): Nice hotel in town - Is was very nice except for a shower that sounds like a dentist drill. And why can't you supply shampoos and soaps that are made in AMERICA?
- Perry (10/5): The place to stay - Was great....will be back
- Joyce (8/5): Good location! - No one would answer the phone when you'd call the front desk. The hotel is in a great spot, and unique, however it needs some updating. My husband, and I stayed here probably 18-19 years ago, and the rooms are the same.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Comfortable and pleasant stay. The front desk staff could not have been more friendly and helpful.
