8.4/10 Very Good! (698 reviews)
Bed was comfortable. Room lighting was poor, too dim in vanity/sink area. Towels were very thin, need to be discarded. Toilet was difficult to flush & was leaking. Breakfast items were ok, coffee wasn't that good. The overall experience was just ok, and we were glad to be leaving. The location was good & basic improvements could be made!
