This hotel was great. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The only problem I had was that I was double charged for bar drinks to my room and I had to call the hotel directly to rectify. Once I finally reached the hotel directly, they could see that the charge was a duplicate and fixed it accordingly. The breakfast was above average. There was some minor construction going on but the hotel staff friendliness made up for the minor inconvenience. I would stay here again.
