10/10 Excellent
"The beds are great. The hotel is about to go through renovations, although the rooms are in great shape already. I understand the lobby will be updated, as will the WIFI. I was disappointed in a couple of minor changes - staff used to offer us water for the room. Now they charge $2 per bottle. The front desk staff seemed stressed."
