8/10 Good
"Overall the experience was great. The breakfast was excellent, wide variety, clean and spacious seating area. All staff members, were great and very professional. The room was clean with just some minor improvements needed, such as, better pillows (super flat and offered little support) and a new hairdryer would be great. Otherwise, the amenities from the lobby area seating to the on site bar was great. A great option to revisit."

8/10 Good
"The room was a good size and clean. Wi-Fi worked well. The bath towels were really old and one was even tattered. Our TV didn’t work and when we called the desk for help, he informed us there was nothing he could do and they would fix it in the morning - well, we left in the morning - thank you anyway. Breakfast was good - it was pretty picked over and sparse when we arrived at 8:20 am. The coffee machine was Not working and when it finally did work, the quality of the coffee was very poor. As we were leaving the breakfast room, they replenished the hot items. Best thing about this hotel was its proximity to the train station."
