A Blamires

This hotel was wonderful. We started our stay at another hotel just down the street but they didn’t have air conditioning so we switched. The Maritim was the perfect choice. Not only did it have AC but it was very clean. It also had a pool. The employees were very helpful and the location was amazing. The hotel has an underground parking garage (you must pay, it’s run by the city) which is very convenient and is at the end of a dead end for drivers (making it a less busy street). The grounds to the right of the hotel are amazing and adjoin a historic park that has beautiful walking trails and fountains. If you go left instead, you’ll find a long street full of shopping and restaurants. There was also another fountain, a beautiful church, and some lovely architecture to be seen within a very easy walking distance. I wish I had more time to visit as there were so many things to do. The beds were about the same as any hotel in Europe, which is to say not very good. I would absolutely not recommend the pull out sofa for an adult. The rollaway is a better choice. But still, that seems to be the same throughout Europe. There was also easy access to public transportation. As for the hotel’s breakfast, there are a lot of choices close by but none as fast as a pre-prepared breakfast (except the bakeries). However, the price for the breakfast when added to your room was higher than the meal was worth. I would choose the bakery for something fast or a local cafe for something slow and either should be less expensive. Overall, a very nice place to stay.
