Excellent Location and Helpful Staff

helpful staff great location breakfast pastry
I appreciated the staff. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. The hotel location is great , with good restaurants nearby. Public transport access is a definite plus. The included breakfast pastry and coffee was a nice touch.
My room was quite small , located at the back of the restaurant dining area. The window was tiny and faced mostly walls. This made moving around difficult , and closet space for my clothes was inadequate.

stale croissants missing invoice
The provided coffee was substandard. Croissants sat out from early morning. They did not taste fresh. The menu offered mostly breakfast options but no light fare. I desired a simple toasted bagel but this request was denied. I also was not offered a copy of my invoice at check-out. I had to request it by email later.
