The staff were pleasant, and the room was clean. The mattress was older and not terribly comfortable, and there was a musty smell to the room. However, delicious, complimentary breakfast burritos were served in their cafe, and overall, my stay was a positive experience. ##### Lesley Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Raina Oct 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff was absolutly fantastic!!
