a decent stay overall

ample optionshelpful staffmissing credentialsdifficult spot

the breakfast was satisfactory with enough options. staff was helpful and accommodated requests. i had a comfortable experience with that.

The internet wifi needed a username and password, but i couldn't find it anywhere. the parking gate was a yellow wall, and it blended with the building. It was hard to spot.
