Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was nice and large and a very comfortable bed. Also, a wonderful shower!! However, I really think your air conditioning system needs to be updated. The air conditioning blasts you when you are in bed and it is very hard to keep the temperature at a comfortable setting. It is either too cold or too warm. The breakfast was good, except I didn't like the do-it-yourself Keurig coffee. I had problems getting it to work--not something you want first thing in the morning. I much prefer the large coffee dispensers.
