great locationclean roomcomplimentary waterpoor wifismall showerpoor customer service
the location was great, easy to find and close to excel. the room was a good size and very clean. i appreciated the complimentary bottled water and biscuits in the room upon arrival!!!
the wifi didn't reach my room at all. the shower was small and the bottles were hard to reach. i thought the short young guy working at the bar had poor customer service skills.
