The location was excellent for accessing nearby facilities. The staff were amazingly helpful and informative. The WiFi connection was also excellent, which I appreciated.

My room felt too dark because there was not much natural lighting. I booked a double bed room but received a single bed instead. The small bed size was not ideal for two people.

clueless manager shoe size room

the staff seemed alright. the breakfast variety was acceptable.

I had a seriously frustrating time. i booked a double bed room, but i got stuck with a shoe-sized room next to the elevator instead. the manager was clueless and insulted my intelligence. She even suggested i didn't know what i was talking about. it was like a complete rip-off.

The reception staff were professional. Housekeeping kept my room very clean. The breakfast was tasty and had various options. The staff were attentive and polite during breakfast.

The shower door did not close properly. The shower area had some dirt. Loud noises from the street made sleeping difficult. I had trouble finding the hotel and parking area.

single bed sneaky move

Upon arrival, I learned the hotel was at capacity, and I would get a disabled room with a single bed for two days. The price was lower than expected, I assumed to reflect the inferior room. Turns out the hotel had already charged the full price, so I paid the expected amount for a much worse room. Not thrilled about that. I found that to be a sneaky move.
