We wished to inquire about the free breakfast but no one answered the phone as Front Desk before 8AM? Most travelers get going early in the AM. Had to eat breakfast elsewhere.

It was well renovated, clean, located conveniently. Everything was fine except that we got the first floor room and could clearly hear everything happening above us. Sound insultation was really bad, we could hear the next door snoring, seriously. The view from the windows was parking lot so had to keep the blinds down all time. Not terrible but overpriced.
