Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Wi-fi worked well. Bed reasonably comfortable. Temperature control OK—room pleasantly cool on a 90° day, with a west-facing window. Nice high shower head with a reasonably strong flow. Good lighting for working at desk and for reading in bed. Friendly and courteous staff. Not so great: Some wall outlets controlled by switch near door, so I had to make sure I didn't accidentally turn off the outlet into which my laptop was plugged and drain the battery. Also, the three pillows were all fairly thin, so it was hard to sit up and read in bed. I'm giving the place five stars out of five, but with a finer scale, I'd give it 9/10, mostly because of the pillows. Provide a variety, since some guests will like thin flexible pillows and some will want fat firm ones?
