The cleaning staff did a great job. However the room allocated had a balcony and no special glass to reduce the road noise. Two nights of non stop road noise and that will never happen again. Also who buys toilet paper that is so thin it virtually disintegrates in your hands.

Nice hotel in a convenient location, staff were very nice. Our room was spacious and comfortable, but the soundproofing wasn’t very good. I could hear the lady in the next room speaking quite clearly on her phone and the TV at times.
Overall a good stay and would stay again.
