Very cool place. Right on the main square which is busy and has all the food and apoplectic watching you can handle for an evening. We were here in January so it was chilly at night. The room stayed warm after they brought in a portable heater. We only ran it for ten minutes. Very nice and helpful staff. Parking for our motorcycles was offsite but in a secure area.
