The breakfast was disappointing. Staff was very friendly, parking was ok.room was clean,however the toilet was broken,tv had very limited reception and worse was the bed. It rolled towards the center from both sides,seemed broken down. I would stay again, but feel these issues need addressed.

Not recommended

Housekeeping did not appear to be working. Bar advertised but only open 2 days/ week per staff. Not open Friday night. Terrible. No ice machine. No elevator. Horrible mattress. Concave. Plenty of parking.
