the room was spacious and bright. a perfect location made exploring very easy. i found i could walk to many places from the hotel with no problems. the large bathroom made mornings much easier for us.
there wasn't any complimentary water in the room, a feature that i would have appreciated. the lack of a proper desk made working a bit difficult, i had to use the bed instead.

Balanced stay experience

convenient locationhelpful employeesclean roomslow breakfast servicedifficult parkingstaff shortage
The location was convenient for accessing local restaurants. The employees were helpful . The room was clean and well-kept (I really appreciated this!).
The breakfast service was not great. I noticed that there were a few staff members to handle the rush, causing delays in refilling food. Finding the parking garage was difficult even with the map. It took some time.

excellent locationdrink making facilities
the location was acceptable , near many bars and restaurants.
i was annoyed by the lack of water in the room. there were no drink-making facilities. i really needed a cup of tea after a long day , but there was no way to make one. i think that's a basic thing a hotel should provide.
