Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I had a very good stay, minor quibbles ( wasn’t told about/where to eat breakfast even though it was part of my package, nor was I told about the gym and other recreational areas, when I brought it up the very nice lady at the reception desk apologized and righted my complaint(s). The check -In was a bit lengthy ; for some reason my reservation ( both times) was not in the system and I had to wait at the lounge for about 30 minutes before it was resolved with an apology. The room(s) were very clean and Modern. I Had breakfast once ; it was a buffet style and very good. I wouldn’t not hesitate to stay at this hotel in the future. I would like to thank their entire staff for making my stay pleasant.

Clean and comfortable
The overall stay was not bad. The room was clean and bed was quite comfortable. However, There a few areas of concerns that can be improved upon like The breakfast selection which was very limited and subpar for a 4 star rated hotel. The customer service of the reception staff was also a disappointing as the reception staff were not friendly neither were they helpful on requests made during the stay.
