Liked: Staff & service
The room seemed clean, a little out dated and smelled like it had been closed up for a while - not sure what the smell really was. Staff was nice but it was noisy very late into the night as there were other guests hanging out in the kitchen area.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pluses -- clean room, friendly front desk and cleaning person, etc Minuses -- no TV channel sheet/guide in the rooms. In this day and age, with 100 or more channels on hotel TVs, trying to use the channel guide on a TV screen is tedious, slow, and often wrong. Each hotel needs a sheet of the channels and the networks on them. 2. The breakfast was continental only. I was expecting a full breakfast with hot food like eggs and choice of meat.
