Its our 2nd stay. The breakfast somewhat good compared to other places, but same stuff every morning and no hot coffee! Also they do not refill when it's out. Next room is not quite, and also construction trucks are passing by early morning. Beds are pretty comfortable. Only bad thing that we were not happy was that the elevator was not working and had to used stairs with our luggage.

Needs an major update. The plumbing in shower and sink drained very slowly. The caulking was yellowing and looks like somone put it down was an after thought. Furniture and lamps were of the 1990 vintage.
