great vibeadequate breakfasthelpful staffdated decorno air conditioningbroken remote
The hotel lobby presented a pleasant vibe, and the public areas had a library and a bar. I found the breakfast adequate. It included cereal, toast, and a cooked breakfast. I asked for veggie sausages (they were prepared for me).
The pictures online are a bit deceiving, as the decor looks more dated in person. My room lacked air conditioning. Only a fan was available. I noticed the remote for the TV did not work, inconvenient.
