Pros:

The place was clean , comfortable and the room was spacious. Friendly staff, very courteous

Cons:

The food/breakfast is the reason for my less than 10 out of 10 review. The eggs was dry, the sausages overcooked, no bacon or waffles ( that would have been a +) We ended up driving to Starbucks for coffee and a sandwich.

Pros:

Breakfast buffet : good variety
location
free parking
king size bed was comfortable
bathroom was nice and clean

Cons:

sofa bed as not comfortable at all and not very clean
TV lacked instructions ... it would have been better to have a smart TV for the kids
The computer chair was awful (was making so much noise)
Buffet was good but a 9h00am = no more potatoes which wasn't great and 9h30AM is very early to finish breakfast
