Excellent stay with great amenities

focused worksmall breakfast selectionspacious bathroomhandicap friendly room
i found great places to work, socialize, or just relax quietly. the breakfast selection was small, but the quality was excellent. i appreciated the pool table, ping pong table, and movie room provided. they even had a salsa class.
the floor became wet after someone showered due to the handicap friendly room design. closing the curtains was necessary for privacy, but it darkened the room too much. i felt these issues could be addressed to enhance the stay.

the gym includes three treadmills and two stationary bikes for workouts. a cinema room offers scheduled movie nights for entertainment and relaxation. i found these facilities enhanced my stay.
Location

nice touchkeycard system
I found the blackout curtains a nice touch. they balanced the large windows that let in a lot of sun, which i appreciated. the hotel had good security. I felt safe with the keycard system, misplaced punctuation. complimentary water was a nice perk. We stayed for a few nights.
the air conditioning was not powerful enough. it made regulating the room temperature a bit challenging
