I really liked them both! \n\nThe room included wireless internet access, was very large, immaculately clean and had incredibly comfortable beds. We were upgraded to a room with a lake view and the view was stunning. The hotel is also in a great location -- just a short walk to the capital building and lots of restaurants and nightlife. \n\nMy only two, I hate to call them complaints but for lack of a better word, complaints, were the TV and the \"executive\" breakfast. The TV was very weird and kept turning on and off by itself! But when I tried to control it, it would sometimes work, sometimes not. A call to maintenance left them completely confused and I decided to give up instead of having the security guard come up and try to fix it as maintenance offered to do. This wasn't a big deal because I just wanted to watch the news before falling asleep and when it was turning on and off it was doing so very quietly. Not a big deal.\n\n The breakfast on the other hand, was a disaster. The employee working there disappeared for so long, a woman took it upon herself to go into the kitchen and make herself a pot of hot water for tea. My brother ate his cereal out of a juice glass because there were no bowls. The selection was limited to a few pieces of melon, some pretty gnarly, cold oatmeal, toast, and a handful of cereal choices. Nothing hot for the \"executive\" breakfast. Now granted, I didn't pay for the upgrade but I'm guessing that some people there had. \n\nThat said, I would stay here again for the room, the view and the location."^^ .
