Room was fine, the staff is very helpful and accommodating. Overall ambiance is not of a five star hotel. The Internet was so slow that it was unusable. We stayed for nights and I had to use my own device to connect to the Internet. I could not use the hotel Internet for my work conference calls.

The room was clean and cozy. However the beds were a little too firm for my liking. Wish they were a lot softer. But that's my preference. However the breakfast was very good and was one of the reasons why we chose it. The highway noise was a little bit much though however we understand there's not much they can do about that
