The staff was friendly. The room was clean and had new carpet. Taking luggage upstairs was easy with two available elevators. There were no insects or mold in the room. The bagel bar was a good okay but not varied enough to eat daily for several days. There were boiled eggs and yogurt for those seeking protein.
