Great location. Great amenities- laundry, kitchen, snack/breakfast/bar area. Very helpful staff. Room was much bigger than expected. Only complaint is that if you are a US traveler, the air conditioning quality is not what we are used to. We were there on very warm days and the room was still rather warm. I imagine this isn’t an issue most days, but we just happen to be there on very hot days.
