"upon check in, there was a staff member arguing on a personal call behind the front desk. the check in person was very helpful and professional but the other person was disturbing. the hotel offers free water from the front desk but there are no filling stations in the hotel. the breakfast staff were gathered every morning in the dining area, sitting and conversing. i thought they were guests at first. the coffee is horrible. upgrade to the machine is needed. i had housekeeping come on my first night but not my second. i was there three nights."
