The superior room was very nice and clean, comfortable bed, great HVAC. The staff was pleasant.The only thing that needs improvement is the breakfast. The food isnt very good, but there are a lot of great places to eat within 100 meters walking distance so not a big deal. The workout room treadmills are not in working oder which is inconvenient.
