We stayed in a double room (2 double beds) Beds were small and uncomfortable, felt like we were rolling off all night. Also a shame to not have any power points beside the beds. Ordered room service to have the staff not remember our room number there was a long delay (I followed up after 1.5hr) Other than that, the location was good, parking was good, pricing was reasonable and the reception staff during check in were great!
