"I can hear the shower of the room
next to us. There were no tissues in the room and the lighting was a bit dark. The breakfast was simply not good. There was a lot of food, but it was mostly Asian breakfast, food was cold and did not taste good. There was a line at 6:30 AM due to a silly check-in process. It was unorganized and there was no flow to the breakfast lines. The hotel gets by with a fancy lobby. The sauna area looked nice, but did not have a chance to enjoy."
"Hazel went out of her way at check-in to suggest activities for us.
The woman at check out ensured we knew how to find the train station.
Both exemplified great customer service."
"Breakfast really let us down. We stayed for 6 nights and can say we saw almost same choices every morning. May be most their guests only spend a couple of nights but for long stayers breakfast has become boring by the third day."
