Beds very comfortable, shower water delightfully hot, and a great non-slip mat in the bathtub (though no safety grab rail for us older folks)! Front desk lady very nice as well as efficient. The room itself and the bathroom were somewhat dated, but very clean; amenities in the room are very nice, but there is no breakfast on premises.
