The hotel is misshapen , have to go into the freezing garage to get to the pool area. The elevator is small and only holds 1-3 people and that's without any luggage. Connected restaurant was terrible plus the wifi is pointless. Ruined my sightseeing experience.

I think they should offer a continental breakfast and when you have to walk out of the building to go to the office and the parking area is always slippery that’s the part that needs improvement
