I would give this 4.5 stars. Staff was great and very helpful, rooms were clean and housekeeping frequent, no noise from outside and breakfast was diverse and yummy. My only complaint was the downstairs restaurant dinner experience was less than ideal. I did g eat at the bar upstairs but heard the food was better by my teammate.

Room was small, bathroom even smaller, shower was squirting very hot water intermittent, noisy corridor, unknown guests randomly knocking doors. Although, we requested higher floors with the reservation, they actually gave us a room right on the first floor in front of the parking. Breakfast was great though.
