We enjoyed our stay here. Room 309 beds comfortable, spacious room and bathroom clean. Lots of plugs to charge our electronics. Our iron did not work, sink has a slow drain, fridge had no freezer section for our ice packs. Breakfast variety was great with eggs, pancakes, bacon, sausage, drinks, pastries, etc. Small dining area but had comfy chairs and kitchen lady kept everything cleaned and stocked. Limited parking was full at night. We will come back again. Thanks

The website advertises high speed internet. My experience was that the internet has major issues with connecting and staying connected. I had no more than 10 minutes of internet use on any day. It would connect and be stable for a couple of minutes and then come up as reconnecting for the next 10 to 15 minutes. I contacted the IT number and they could not correct the problem. The breakfast was marginal at best. There was no flavor with the exception of salt, pepper, or whatever else I put on the food.
