    Directly across the street from the fairground, short walk to entrance. The breakfast was very good, omelets, Bacon Sausage, cereal, yogurt, fruit, juices and coffee, they even have a pancake machine for fresh pancakes. The room was large, with a nice desk, sofa and large television, premium channels included. The bed was excellent, white sheets and coverings so they were spotless and clean.
