The staff was very friendly and helpful. I appreciated that. The breakfast had a very good selection of food. The location was convenient and allowed me to walk to many attractions. The room cleaning service was consistent and thorough.
The hotel room lighting was inadequate with main lights. It felt too dark with bedside lights on. The shower leaked all over the tile floor because of improper glass door fit. the shower size was quite small.
