This is a very clean, nice hotel. The Capet down the hallway is very nice. They have a business area with computers on ground floor with bar. Many outlets everywhere. No fans in the ceiling but the AC works really well. If you have a suite there is AC in every room along with TV, microwave, small refrigerator.
