There no meals access, bed comfort is amazing and comforting, the internet acess is terrible, the parking acess is also very difficult to parking but part of the this the staff members are nice and chilled. I do request to advance the signal endurance, and change the building to try to have their own parking system. Thank you for your attention and service.
