The room was clean and people were friendly. Also, the breakfast was quite good. On the negative side, television services were very poor, the beds were hard, and the blinds did not work properly. Storage in terms of a dresser or drawers was also very lacking. It was quite small and uncomfortable for my wife, 2 sons, and I and we checked out early.
