Wonderful stay

The staff was extremely helpful, and the facility was very clean. The only negative was that the pool was out of service. Otherwise, we were very happy with the accommodations and staff service.

The hotel was well maintained overall. I was pleased that the front desk attendant permitted me in my room well before the usual check-in time. The breakfast was good. The only negative was the coffee maker in the room. Only decaffeinated coffee was offered. Also, the coffee maker didn't work, or I couldn't get it to work.
