Everything was great. Very standard rooms, great staff, and the breakfast was excellent.
The only tiny thing was that the shower faucet knob was super sensitive and couldn’t get hotter either way by a degree of twist. Super minor; hardly an issue.

Off season price was more to my liking for a single night stay. Can't beat the central location. Carpet in hallways and the elevator could use a little sprucing up but always my go to place if the price is right.
