Breakfast was very good and fresh! The dinner offerings left me wanting. Not much variety - very limited. The bar was clean, staff were readily available, but selections were very limited and uninspired. The rooms were very clean, modern and well appointed. An option I would like to have seen would be the availability of a small refrigerator.
