A few areas of improvement needed.

Very difficult to get a park near room 25 as there is nowhere to park. It was pouring rain. Hotel is not the same since new owners have taken over. Not the nice friendly service that you used to get with previous owners. Nothing kept in the mini bar now and cleaning not up to scratch.
