fantastic stay!

fast elevators keurig coffee maker valet parking

I was so impressed with the fast elevators, i never waited long! the fitness center was well-equipped, i loved the three treadmills. the in-room coffee maker was a keurig, i brewed a perfect cup every morning. the hotel offers a valet parking service. It's so convenient and fast!

the minibar prices were pretty high, i think the cost could be more reasonable.

impersonal check-in limited menu

the check-in process felt impersonal the front desk staff seemed uninterested in addressing my questions i found that quite disappointing. the room service menu was limited with few healthy options available a wider selection would greatly improve the dining experience. also i noticed some wear and tear in the room the furniture looked a little dated

small gym weak coffee

The hotel looked grand , but a few details missed the mark. I found the fitness center to be surprisingly small . I expected more than just two treadmills. The breakfast buffet , while extensive , lacked variety from day to day. I also thought the in-room coffee could have been better. It tasted weak. The turn-down service felt inconsistent , sometimes skipping our room entirely. These issues collectively detracted from what should have been a seamless experience.
