My classic double room included crisp, white sheets and offered comfort. Air conditioning was in the room, plus a fan, and that helped. There were coffee and tea facilities with fresh milk, a nice touch.

The staff was polite and friendly. They recorded an incident when I fell. I asked for ice. A receptionist knew exactly what I did because it happened before.

The staff at reception were efficient and helpful. The location was GREAT!
I was underwhelmed by the cleanliness. The floors and surfaces were dusty. This is UNACCEPTABLE. My room was not cleaned , and when I went to breakfast at 10:15 am (45 minutes before closing), there was barely anything left. The waitress said they could not replenish the items. I was disappointed.
