The staff greeted us well and were polite. the breakfast buffet had a wide variety. the hotel offered convenient parking and nearby access to multiple restaurants and shops. The location was perfect though the parking was expensive.

the in-room refrigerator did not cool effectively, despite requesting assistance. this made it difficult to store drinks properly.
