United States of AmericaAmple number of staff work the front desk-so never a wait to check in or out. Very comfortable bed and comforter.Quiet room .Modern bathroom.Umbrella and safe in room closet. Comprehensive breakfast had many healthy options.It was nice they had soy/almond milk-and made lattes or cappuccinos upon request.
