The building had secure parking, and it was very helpful. The staff gave me walkable recommendations for dinner because the restaurant was closed on Sunday night. The room itself was comfortable and what I expect from the brand. I had a quiet sleep.

The hotel was located away from the main door which was slightly inconvenient.
