The hotel no longer offers the continental breakfast that our booking included, so we were given vouchers for $10 each, but that did not cover the cost of any breakfast on the menu.

The room was very clean, the robes and espresso machine are a nice extra. The complimentary continental breakfast is nothing special. Actually, has little to offer. The Salt line restaurant has a limited menu as well. The employees we dealt with at arrival and check out were exceptional. Very friendly, helpful, and yet professional.
