the hotel was clean and easy access was granted to different areas.

The provided room i booked was very small. Movement was difficult, especially with two carry-ons. the bathroom was compact. Multiple shower jets design did not meet the standard i expect. Elbow banging happened constantly. the staff was amiable up until check-out. i needed front desk assistance to reschedule a dinner reservation at check out but my request was denied right after i checked out.
