“The location opposite EastPark Mall is a definite draw, placing you within steps of restaurants and shopping; innovation marks the room design and the restaurant, particularly the regularly updated menu. However, some may find the noise levels disruptive, and note the inconsistent upkeep. I believe improvements in these areas would significantly elevate the experience.”
