The room was insanely expensive for a middle of the road room. Probably one of the loudest hotels I’ve ever been in. Showerhead definitely needs to be replaced.

The room was clean and most of the staff was very pleasant. The breakfast attendant apparently was having a bad few days during our stay. The food was fine, but his attitude was not so great. The only other complaint that I could possibly have would be the water pressure for showers. It was difficult to rinse off properly.

My room wasn't ready by the time check in came around so they upgraded me to a suite even though I didn’t ask for it. That was super nice of them and was greatly appreciated. Room was clean and bed was comfy. This was our second time staying here and we will come back again.
