Staff nice. Breakfast excellent. Beds a little hard for my liking but room was very nice and clean
Our stay was excellent! The breakfast spread was impressive, offering a great variety of fresh, high-quality options to start the day. Additionally, the parking was incredibly convenient and stress-free, which made a huge difference. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a seamless experience!

Nice and clean place. Friendly staff. My only complaint is slow/low pressure shower.
The room was exceptionally clean. Pillows comfortable, sheets & bedding clean. Staff at check-in was warm & welcoming. Went down late for a pop & staff said there was a small variety available but she could offer us yogurt or a banana -- although we didn't take any, that's the first time a hotel offered us a little to eat, and I can see how important that would be in a city built on health care, as yours is. If I'd been ill, I'd have felt my care was already starting!
Clean room, helpful staff, free breakfast. We had a problem with our heating and maintenence had left so the gentleman at the front check-in came right up and took care of the problem. Check-out was easy and quick.
