Didnt like the smell of cigarette smoke in some areas of hall and room, but that msy or may not be the fault of the hotel. I akso thought the breakfast set-up and options could be upgraded. The room was clean, I like that, but could use upgraded lighting.

Nice hotel, but the concierge was not knowledge about my vip status or Benedict’s with Expedia and so I did not receive them. Which was one of the reasons I booked a stay here.
