This was a personal travel with family. The hotel has a very relaxed vibe in the lobby/restaurant area with high ceiling and "woven basket" lanterns suspended from roof lightly swaying. For a property that opened in 1984, it is in a fantastic condition. There is absolutely nothing I can pinpoint as being sub par. The staff is a very diverse young one. I was actually surprised by the variety and quality of food (including desserts) that was at the hotel. I had tempered my expectations given the location, but the hotel exceeded all of them. In particular, I appreciate there being a complimentary filtered water station which meant we never went to local IGA.

That carpet looks like someone was murdered in the room and they dragged the body across the floor.
