The staff was generally friendly and accommodating. We had opted for breakfast, which was also very nice and appealing. The only thing we would have preferred differently was if the entire hotel was non-smoking. Although we had a non-smoking room, the hallways were still heavily affected by the smell of smoke from nearby rooms
