The location is very convenient to the city center and other attractions within walking distance. The hotel includes its own parking garage, a huge benefit. I was able to easily prepare my own meals because my room included a kitchenette. I found the staff to be very helpful .

the room had limited ventilation options. Only one window could be slightly opened. It was noticeable for a family.

loose switchnoisy door

The room wasn't particularly clean. I found quite a bit of hair on the floor. an electricity switch was loose. That felt dangerous, actually. the bathroom door was very noisy, and the hot food at breakfast wasn't hot at all.
