Very nice management, changed my room for me because I needed accessibility. Clean room. Very quiet. The mattresses are standard hotel mattresses, a bit firm for my personal tastes, but I slept fine. I’d only note that there aren’t enough electrical sockets around the bed to accommodate CPap and all the electronic gizmos we have these days. I will gladly stay there again.
