"We had a nice stay, the staff were very friendly. There were different seating times for the buffet breakfast and they suggest you stay for about 45 minutes which felt a bit rushed. The wi-fi didn’t work in our hotel room until we asked reception, there was a workaround but I wish they had told us that to begin with. They have partnered with a gym next door and you can get a pass to use it (free of charge). Overall it was a nice stay, pretty central and easy to get around."

"The hotel is odd and wonderful. Breakfast was delicious. Bathroom was huge! My notpicky complaints are the windows didn't open and the AC cut off when we turned off the lights at night. And the bathroom lights only worked when the overhead light was on? Maybe if we stayed longer I would have figured it out. Super convenient to the World of Volvo (during construction, it is shorter to walk along the front street and not through back lot)."
