The breakfast buffet offered many options. Eggs were made live, though the area got busy around 9 am. there were lots of choices available! the buffet diner offered many options, too. the value was good for the price.

The staff were friendly, though they seemed tired. It was visible they were under pressure. i found it odd that i had to pay a deposit! i was not informed beforehand, and this feels prohibited for a hotel of this level.

the premium room was very spacious. i enjoyed having both a bathtub and a shower in my room! the room was quiet and faced the back, so i did not hear any traffic. this contributed positively to my rest.
