I love the great breakfast at this hotel. I really liked all the variety it has. The staff is so kind and helpful. Parking is convenient, it is an advantage.
I find some aspects need some attention. Some ceiling windows needs some repair. they charge for the circuit, it is not ideal. I saw areas that needed maintenance inside and out. There were carpet stains in two rooms I saw.
