Kelly

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The breakfast was very good each day with a selection of olives, cheese, yogurt, etc.; as well as fresh ripe vegetables and fruit. However, although there were three self-service expresso machines, the coffee beans were of poor quality and thus, the coffee did not taste good. The breakfast meats were also of poor quality and did not taste as good either. The staff was very friendly and helpful! Snow is a great employee, who remembers people and who should be compensated well.
