The hotel has a convenient location near the ao arena. I appreciated the helpful staff . The hotel offered on-site parking and it was easy to find a space. The room was clean and neutrally decorated which was pleasant.
The bathroom felt a bit small, with limited space for moving around comfortably. It was a minor inconvenience.
