Just a stop over or a few nights. Had a few problems finding the Ave after getting of the shuttle bus a few blocks away. Big room, plenty of space and great shower. I understand it is getting refurbished soon so all good, as a bit dated at the moment. Breakfast included is not comprehensive but suffice.

I found that the showers were decrepit, old and out of style. The shower head was decomposing and the water pressure insufficient. The rest made up for it. Good breakfast and good service
