I was positively surprised and happy that both rooms I booked had a washing machine and dryer, plus a little kitchenette. We only stayed one night, but the breakfast service provided in the restaurant down stairs was very well presented and filling for the huge day we were having with basketball games from 11:00 AM to 8:15 PM that Sunday. Slept like a baby, clean rooms, clean bedding and towels.
