The staff was very helpful and friendly. Restaurant was above average for a hotel facility, dinned there twice and both times had excellent meals and commendable service. The exercise/workout area was somewhat limited, and a nice quite seating area with a view would be nice with a fireplace for reading and reflecting rather than the fake fire and two seats in the lobby.
