"Overall it was a good stay. The location was great. To get 5 stars, some improvements could be made, none of which were worth complaining or asking about individually: the bathroom door handle came off in my hand, the outlet for the TV wasn't working, the elevator seemed to work sporadically (and press up to go down), and there's no shower curtain of any kind so we had to towel dry the floor that got very wet. Didn't try the breakfast."
