"The hotel had a convenient and quiet location. The restaurant in the lobby had friendly staff and packed our order to take to our room. He even offered to deliver it to our room. The room was large, with a coffee maker, fridge and microwave. There were two large comfortable chairs as well as a desk chair. It would have been nice to know ahead of time that there was not an elevator, but the desk staff carried all our bags upstairs. The cleaning staff were very helpful. I would stay again, but ask for a main floor room."
