We stayed at this hotel when it was Microhtel. The interior of the hotel looks great, new carpeting, new furniture in rooms. Our disappointment was in the breakfast. The only hot items were toasted bread and bagels. I was surprised there were no waffles or scrambled eggs. No big deal for us, we went to a local diner for breakfast. There should be some nontification that you do not serve a hot breakfast.
