Adequate Hotel Stay

comfortable bedhelpful stafflow pressureslow service

The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. I found the included breakfast a nice addition. The staff was helpful and friendly when I needed assistance. I was also pleased that the location was close to the airport.

The shower did not have very good water pressure. It took a while for the bar worker to bring my order over. I observed my friend's wine sat on the bar and she was told that the drinks would be brought over when they were ready. I thought that was not efficient.
