Hu. Hotel
We didn’t try any facilities like workout rooms so I can’t comment on them. The building has seen better days. The hotel staff as excellent. They were respectful and courteous. The biggest problem we had was the bed. While it was comfortable, my short wife found it a challenge to get into bed.
