Everything was nice and renovated. The only issue I had is that the rugs are really smelly and needs to be replaced. In addition, there were few times in the evening that I had to call the front desk for few inquiries but there was no answer. Other than that the sraff was really nice and helpful and the breakfast was really nice as well.
