The staff were very professional & friendly. The dining accommodations were mediocre with no “atmosphere”. The room was acceptable and clean but a little tired. The bathroom sink was cracked and the grout in the shower appeared stained or moldy. Overall not terrible but I expected more from the Sudima brand and room cost.
