It was a fine stay though pricey for the quality of the facility. The breakfast area was tiny- we didn’t eat anything but looked in and it felt very crowded with few options. Front desk staff were extremely pleasant and friendly.

Won't repeat

Front desk staff were friendly. Everything seemed fine (decent room with comfortable bed) but creeped out to see a cockroach. Luckily we only stayed one night and the sighting was on the way out as we were getting on the elevator.
