It’s a nice hotel. However I am use to the the actual suites. It is connected to one restaurant but the area overall is a bit deserted. Staff was nice.

It was an okay stay overall. The rooms are a little outdated for the price. The shower and toilet in particular were disappointing. For the amount of money you would think every room would include a microwave and fridge. It was fine for a single night stay but I won’t be returning. “Free Breakfast” was bagels packaged muffins and coffee..
