It would have been nice to have more sit down restaurants in the area, but we used the Metro often or Lift. We did eat in the restaurant a few times and it was very good. All the staff was friendly and accommodating.

The rooms themselves were very nice. Good beds and newer furniture. The only negative comment I could make about this property is that the elevators are limited in number and very VERY slow. Long wait times for elevators.
