Excellent Amenities and Location
easy access air purifier sleeping sound
I appreciated the easy access to necessary items in the hallway. I did not need to call and wait. The rooms include air purifiers, important for allergy sufferers. A device for sleeping sounds was present. The bed had great comfort. It provided a restful sleep.
The breakfast area felt too crowded. The area is small, so it made getting food difficult. One staff member was present so it made it hard to enjoy it. It would be better with more space.
