Your staff were exceptional - both the two we encountered at checkin and the two concierges. The room was very nice and we appreciated the mugs. The room was lovey and clean. We thought the lighting could do with improvement, it was harsh and low. Thank you.

Very convenient located establishment, very capable staff! The premium king suite was a bit cramped- one side of the king bed was a very steep slope - hvac system is bothersome. The restaurant should invest in an upgrade in their coffee system rather than the Kerig. Had to go down the street for a decaf.
