The Hotel is very nice and in a great location. It is clean and the staff were helpful. I did not book breakfast when I booked on Expedia which was $55 for two of us. However when we went to have breakfast there it was $78 which we declined. The rooms are great and have everything you need. Unfortunately they are a little noisy and you can hear doors banging through the night and our air conditioner had a vibration which would start after a couple of hours and give a rattle through the night which was a little disturbing.
