Good sleep before busy day.
Anna checked us in quickly and made sure we knew the property, what time the complimentary drinks and snacks were and even helped us decide where to go to dinner . Dead battery in the smoke detector chirped as we walked into the room but housekeepers relayed to maintenance and it was fixed fast. Strange water restrictions kinda made the showering harder than usual but i think that was temporary? Slept very well with no problems or complaints.

Recommend this hotel
Hetel was nice. It was convenient to where we needed to go. Staff was friendly.
The entire breakfast crewn especially the ladies managing the seating area, were phenomenal. I wish I could remember the one lady's name. She was so helpful to my elderly parents that have mobility issues.

Disappointment
The hotel itself seemed to be kinda dirty and not cleaned very well. There was no hot water for showers as the boiler had went out and nobody seemed to be bothered by it when we went to the front counter. The quality for an Embassy was down right disappointing and May never stay at another Embassy moving forward.

Overall my stay was good. The only complaint I had was the shower. The water pressure would drop extremely low and turn cold all at the same time. Then after about a minute, it would return to normal.
