It was a good and comfortable stay.. we were there for 4 days, house keeping tidied the room every day and the on day 2 they replaced sheets and everything. There are no microwaves in the room or ice machine on floors — only in lobby. The breakfast was good on the first morning we were there but other days it was stale. Not sure if there were different cooks; and not much options to choose from but that’s the only improvement I’d recommend. I enjoyed my stay though!
