Nice spot would return
This a nice place to stay. The restaurant is decent. The lobby is very clean. I think that the brunch buffet price is worth it. It is just better to order what you need for breakfast at the cafe. There a lot of restaurants in the area and it is very clean. I really liked walking around there.
