Great New Hotel Experience!
Pros:

Very clean, spacious room. Loved the blackout track curtain. Great TV channel selection. Coffee quality was very good. Pleasant staff. Quiet at night. Very comfortable bed and pillows.

Cons:

Having to leave. Water from shower flows purposely across the floor to the center of the bathroom, but does not drain quickly.

Modern facilities but more expensive.
Pros:

Everything in the room and throughout the hotel looked new and modern. The room was comfortable, clean, and in very good condition. The hotel also had laundry facilities, which were very useful during our stay. The washing machines and dryers were easy to use and surprisingly inexpensive. This was a great extra service, especially for guests staying for several days.

Cons:

Although the breakfast buffet offered a reasonably extensive selection, the quality of the food left a great deal to be desired. Moreover, the entire buffet was cleared away promptly at 9:30 a.m., which seemed unnecessarily early if you are on vacations.

Good for the most part but needed accessible room.
Pros:

Excellent breakfast. Comfortable bed. Places to put luggage off the floor. Refrigerator and microwave. Mostly clean. Plenty of outlets for charging phones. Several TV stations and shows to choose from.

Cons:

I needed and had booked an accessible room and they had been overbooked. The bathroom didn’t have rails by the toilet or a place to sit on in the shower. The floor of the shower was slippery and I was afraid of falling. Needed better cleaning around shower door. Room had a damp smell.
