Overall it was a pleasant stay and we would definitely use this hotel again because it was convenien
Pros:

The location with excellent for our needs.

Cons:

The staff made it really obvious that they did not like that we booked through booking.com . We had to go down to the front lobby to ask for more towels and washcloths and when we did they made it obvious that they did not like that we were asking for this. When they came and made up the room the following day they did not replace the toilet paper that was used up or the tissues, we had to go downstairs and ask for additional .
