excellent stay
helpful staff clean room water bottle facilities great location
i found the staff very helpful and attentive. the room was large and very clean. refreshments were available, along with facilities to refill water bottles. i thought the location was really great.
the controls in each room are set to allow only 67- 73 degrees , and the room temperature felt too warm overnight.
