Some rooms may have lower bed heights, and the bed softness varies - some find the pillows too soft, while others report excellent comfort. A refreshment center (microwave, refrigerator, coffee-making) is included in every room. For light sleepers, higher-floor rooms away from the elevator are recommended, as elevator noise and road noise can be audible in some locations.

Breakfast is a paid extra (approx. $12 USD) and features both a buffet and a popular made-to-order omelet station with options like bacon, cheese, and avocado toast. The standard continental breakfast is limited (scrambled eggs and toast), but the hot cooked-to-order breakfast receives high marks for quality and variety.
