All the staff were welcoming, happy and polite. The room was cleaned and well-maintained. Thanks to the help of front desk staff we were able to access Internet, however it is a bit unclear if there was complimentary Wi-Fi and a little tricky to join the network.

Great stay! Initially, there was a problem with the shower and they changed our room right away. The room was spotless including the kitchen area. Breakfast was delicious. Parking was convenient, especially when using the side entrance to the hotel. We would definitely stay there again.
