The suite was very clean with great decor. I especially enjoyed the bathroom. It included the best shower I have ever used with the wall jets. Beds were really comfortable. The hotel was very modern (a plus, in my opinion).

I had to wait longer than expected before someone came to take my drinks order in the bar area.

The food was tasty.

The bar shut down at 10 PM even though I was staying there. Breakfast did not match the menu, items were missing, and the scrambled eggs were rubbery. The coffee was cold, and there was no milk available at the table.
