Ok for one night.
Bed was confortable and room was spacious. We received good & efficient service during check in and check out. Room was not “super” clean. We had a pet friendly room, located at the first floor, and the carpet was significantly used / old / damaged / with crumbles / dust from prior travelers and their dogs. We did not see any value on the dog fee. Breakfast had good options but was chaotic and noisy. Had the impression the at breakfast area is too small for the crowd.

Checkin was quick and easy. Staff was also friendly. I appreciated the free EV charging (our main reason for staying here). I was also pleasantly surprised at the quality and variety of the continental breakfast. Not just the typical waffle station, but also hot plates, fresh fruit, etc. quality drip coffee and a Nescafé espresso machine. Rooms were fine. Beds and pillows were probably the worst part. Not terrible but not great. Overall very happy and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Room was fantastic. Breakfast was not good, or should I say, the only thing for breakfast was the waffles. The eggs definately were not good. And the sausages had no flavor at all.

Alright
Check in was good only thing I didn’t like was the room didn’t get cleaned even when we put the sign on the door we had to call down to get items also it’s very loud the people above us were banging around all night and I don’t mean a little I mean stomping jumping banging it was loud . Breakfast was great lots of options (that was nice ) area was good close to everything price could have been a bit cheaper I believe
