The lady had the reception desk was very nice and very helpful. Got to the room, there was only 2 shower towels. There were no hand towels, so I had to ask for those. Also, when we got to the hotel room, they gave us a little coffee machine. But they only had decaffeinated. They didn't have any regular coffee. But in the morning breakfast, we could have all the coffee we wanted. So workout, the price is very reasonable.And the staff is very nice
