Would Stay Again
Pros:

Good location. Nice room. Friendly, helpful staff.

Cons:

The breakfast was probably a little better than some others we've had in hotels in the US, but still pretty bad.

Pros:

I had a really great stay at this hotel. The reception staff were super welcoming and happy to answer all my questions. The breakfast was really good with lots of variety, and as a vegetarian I always had plenty of options. The room was huge and had everything I needed.
