perfect stay!

free snacks breakfast choice
i loved the complimentary snacks and the mini bar in the room. breakfast included many choices. it was great to have so many options.
other residents woke us at 4:15am. and kept us awake until morning. it was uncertain who was in charge or had the authority to deal with this issue. no one seemed to be onsite to deal with the noisy residents

A Mixed Stay

shower size high noise
I had issues with the noise level. Other guests were loud late at night. It disrupted my sleep considerably. the shower in the room was quite small. It was difficult to move around comfortably. I think they could improve that.
