Bath room has moisture damage to base boards and door which doesn't open fully. A small room that has only two coat hooks for your luggage. Coffee maker broke down after making two cups. There's no temprature control in the room. My SUV is too high to fit in their underground parking but has parking space behind the building.

Staff were fine. Room was clean from what I could tell. But the bed one whole side is maybe broken or just worn right out. The pillows went super flat in minutes and finally the window didn’t fully seal learning a bunch of cold air in. Probably would not stay again especially at that price.

While the rooms had been recently renovated there is need for basic maintenance on little things like towel racks, toilet seats. Need more hooks closet or place to hand a coat - only two in our room. Hot tub was not hot, had scum along the sides and way too much chlorine - burned our eyes.
