The superior queen room was spacious. The air conditioning worked very well. The breakfast offered a good selection of fresh food, and the staff was friendly. Check-in was handled wonderfully and the staff were very attentive.
The shower head provided minimal water pressure. I found I had to stand very close to the wall to get wet. It proved somewhat inconvenient.

the fan in the room had an unusual operation pattern , turning on and off every minute. this was disruptive , accompanied by a blue light that illuminated the room.
