The breakfast had a wide range of options. The food was good quality. The staff were polite and accommodating.

The shower door was damaged. The toilet seat was also damaged. I stayed on the third floor and overlooked the entrance roof. I noticed a small trash bag with a diaper. Someone forgot to remove it.
