The staff was very kind and helpful to me. My room was clean, and I appreciated that. The enclosed area felt secure (i liked this).

There was not much coffee, tea, or milk in the room. Luckily, I brought some of my own. I also found the room to be a little cold, and there were no extra pillows available.
