Great experience

I choose best western plus meridian because of its location and review online. I have to say the hotel exceeded my expectation. The room is of very decent size with sitting area and desk nook. The breakfast buffet was very well prepare and had many variety. The staffs are also very friendly. The head hostess in the restaurant greeted me with a beautiful smile every time she saw me and made sure everything was fine. Highly recommend best western plus meridian.
