The staff were friendly and helpful. the location was excellent with easy access to the center. i thought the rooms were fresh and modern. They were also super clean!!! the breakfast options had a wide variety.

It was difficult for the person sleeping on the inside to get in and out of bed. there was no chair and no table available. This wasn't great for older people.
