Acceptable Stay, Issues Encountered

intrusive service limited breakfast
The hotel's location was convenient enough.
The service was notably intrusive. Staff members called and knocked frequently. This made relaxing in the room difficult. Breakfast also disappointed because it lacked variety and didn't meet five-star standards.

I really loved the professional staff. They were helpful with directions. The hotel provided a very clean room and luxury furniture everywhere. Breakfast included great choices and fresh options. It was the best I ever had. The location proved to be a perfect one because everything felt close by.
The air conditioning wasn't great in my room. The humidity and warmth made sleeping difficult. This meant I didn't get a good sleep .
