Very nice stay with two exceptions. The chain should be consistent regarding complimentary breakfast and even though the kitchen amenities were very nice, there wasn’t any place for two people to eat. Easy correction, take out the six useless drawers and in place add a second chair. In addition, you need to provide two luggage holders— very inconvenient

Super-friendly front desk staff. There was a trash can in our room that was not emptied, I called front desk staff and the young lady was very apologetic for the inconvenience. Large laundry room, clean gym and quiet property located in a business center.
