Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Good location, staff friendly. Rooms tired - limited hanging space, limited bathroom space for toiletries. Breakfast plentiful but tasteless Rooms not soundproofed for hallway noise and banging doors. I would stay again but only if was no other choice Don’t appreciate having to pay for parking as a guest.
