Staff was courteous. Breakfast was horrible. Oj was water and eggs were inedible. No creamer for the coffee. Watched many people come in, look at the food and leave.
Parking on the street was hit or miss. Should have something set up so people don’t have to drag luggage from a mile away in the parking garage.
