adequate stay near station

air conditioningbreakfast buffetbathroom divisiondistant parking
the location was convenient for accessing the train station. air conditioning was effective and much needed due to the heat outside. the breakfast buffet presented many different choices and i considered it a good value.
i found the bathroom to be divided oddly with the sink separate from the rest and poor lighting. the parking was located far from the hotel. i had to park on the street as a result of this issue.
