Staff was excellent. A couple of improvements could be made on the room (303). Worn out toilet seat, new ones are not expensive. Door lock/ key was difficult. Heater was noisy, maybe get it serviced or replaced. Rooms are not well insulated from outside noises (highway, other heater units etc). And the picture above the bed had some unidentified splatter on it. I would stay there again but maybe choose another room.
