Parking is awful. Have to have a small car to fit and you pay 20 a day for it.
Breakfast lacks options.
AC was intermittent.

I liked everything but the free breakfast eggs. The eggs were cooked over easy and tasted rubbery. Make scrambled eggs! Otherwise a very nice place.

Unfortunately we stayed in 1st floor room. He heard a lot of noise during the night, especially coming from the upper room. We wanted a better firm mattress for a good sleep. And We got a really old one. Just Sadness
