However, I had one noise issue after the next. First, the walls are paper thin. I could hear EVERY word of the conversation next door. Secondly, the hotel is located on an ambulance route and sirens go by many times a day. Third, the heating/cooling unit in the room is incredibly loud. So much that it literally woke me up during the night every time it clicked on! Lastly, the maid service was quite disturbing during the middle of the day when I was trying to rest. While cleaning the room next door, she repeatedly let the door slam into the metal door jam as she was constantly going in and out between the room and her cleaning cart. It went on for a very long time (half hour) until I couldn't bear it anymore and approached her. Thankfully she resolved it quickly.
As for breakfast, you can get a $7 voucher for the restaurant, or the "Grab & Go" breakfast consisting of Bob's Red Mill oatmeal or muesli, fruit, milk/juice/water or Carnation protein drink. The room service is quite expensive (though the food is delicious). It ended up costing me $28 for a burger and soda.
It is convenient having a very large shopping center across the street accessible by foot. Starbucks, Rite Aid drug store, Ross, Michaels, Dollar Tree, Subway, Fisherman's Outdoor, a fabulous hole-in-the-wall Mexican/Peruvian restaurant - La Hacienda (and many more).
Lastly, the toilet was not flushing when I first received my room, but it was fixed promptly.
In summary, I would say this is a great hotel for someone who is not fussy and simply needs a quick overnight stay. This isn't a great vacation destination, though. less
