There were too many maintenance issues. The entrance to the facility near my room was busted and I had to enter from the main entrance each time. The lobby was dark, dingy and uninviting. The room was stuffy and the toilet & air duct in the bathroom had to be repaired. The breakfast was scarce. For example, of the 3 small containers of hot options, I had to wait for the eggs to defrost before they could be prepared and made available. As a result, my best options was a toasted bagel.

Overall a Great Experience

Positives: Great, secure, accessible location. Comfortable and beautiful room. Areas of Improvement: Hotels.com indicated that a free bottle of wine would be provided upon check in based on my membership level but that did not happen. Breakfast in the morning was ok, not everything was displayed or available and some of the pastries tasted stale.

Clean, comfortable, full breakfast options.

No complaints -- the variety of breakfast items was a welcome addition to the clean and comfortable room and bath. Would stay again -- The front desk person, Mili, was most welcoming and helpful. She really made me feel at home, from the first night and throughout the stay.

Great stay

We had a fabulous stay. The location is very close to everything downtown. We did not try the breakfast but we went to Rise and Shine diner and it was absolutely amazing. I absolutely loved the full length mirror that hid the closet.
