The staff is very welcoming. The room was nice. Unfortunately the breakfast is not so good. The microwave oven in the breakfast room was dirty and the door would not open easily. The floor in the breakfast room was sticky and yuck. The breakfast food was cheap and scanty. If you are going to offer breakfast, why not get some decent bread? It would make a big difference to guests if you offered some appealing foods.
