straightforward stay

the staff was efficient during check-in. my standard room hot had a comfortable bed and decent storage. i found the provided breakfast adequate with several choices. the hotel has easy access to main roads, i appreciated that.
i noticed the parking lot had limited spaces, especially during peak hours. finding a spot took longer than expected. more parking capacity would definitely improve the experience
