8/10 Good
"Weren't in room a lot. Most TV channels not working always. Not enough towels, but you could pick some up. Breakfast we thought was very well provided. Quiet place. Clean. We will stay again if go back to area. If you pick room with roll in shower...assuming you are on wheelchair or have leg issues, please note...It is on 4th fl and as far away from elevator as possible. We thought a shower like that it would be a first floor and close unit but it is not. So we took another room because there were plenty of grab bars to access shower safe enough. suprised to have micro and frig not mentioned, Don't know if they all had it."
