The breakfast was cold, they did have a microwave to warm it up. The same items though for Saturday and Sunday. But sure if they switch it up during the week. The gym was basically weights. The treadmill did not work and the bike you couldn’t move the seat up. The floor in the gym was wet not sure why. Pool area was very hot just to sit in there, dont know about water temperature though. No elevator, there are only 2 floors but if you bring a lot of stuff that’s a lot of going up and down the stairs. Some staff didn’t speak English like for the breakfast area, had to let her know the milk was empty. Beds were comfortable.

I was very happy with my room. Comfortable bed, soft sheets and pillows. I had a great sleep 😴. My only complaint is the air freshener that is pumped through the lobby and hallways is very toxic and offensive, please tone it down or get rid of it for everyone’s safety.
