Yes, I recommend this property.
The lament flooring was lifting in the room but the room was clean, pleasant and the bed comfortable. I was happy with the room and the buffet breakfast was probably the best I've ever seen. Lots of fruit. The location is also convenient. My only issue, is you don't feel welcome when you arrive. The main door to the hotel is locked and there is no one there. You have to ring a bell that you're not even sure works. You can see the receptionists but they don't acknowledge you when you ring the bell nor does anyone hurry over to let you in. I was left standing in the cold twice and when I was leaving I had to let in another customer who looked confused and was ringing the door bell, but no one came. I finally walked over and let him in myself. I can understand why they want the door locked but if your going to lock the door but if you're going to lock your customers out, have someone there to let them in or at the very lest put a speaker by the bell so the receptionist can at the very least acknowledge your presence and assure you someone will be there shortly!

The room was comfortable and clean. Great bed. My only issue was that the coffee maker was broken so I couldn't make a cup of coffee when I got up. And the batteries were dead in the remote so I couldn't turn on the TV. These aren't a major issues but two problems with my room in a single stay is a little much. If you're going to advertise that the room has a TV and coffee maker shouldn't they work? I arrived at 2am. I wasn't about to start calling staff at that time of the morning and I had to be up early after a late night. It would have been nice to be able to prepare a cup of coffee. It shows a lack of concern for their customers comfort.
