The housekeeping on the third floor provided excellent service. The team was very attentive and kept everything tidy. I found the reception staff quite helpful upon arrival. They efficiently addressed my questions and made check-in easy.
I noticed a distinct lack of parking near the premises. Finding a spot after 10 PM proved difficult, often requiring a walk.
