"Excellent place to stay. Park right at your entry in extra wide spaces. Stayed in room #3, 3 nights in mid-November 2025\. Negatives: Cost was a bit higher & No USB ports. Positives: Easy check-in. Front desk service was above normal. Room was quiet, clean, & comfortable. Water was instant hot. Nice full kitchen with: microwave, refrigerator, 2 place stovetop, kettle, toaster, full set of chefs knives, glasses, plates, silverware, & more. Abundantly provided Coffee & Teas (Ceylon & English breakfast). Silverware/ceramics were clean. Wi-fi worked well. TV worked well with 50+ channels. Hand-held shower head option, Laundry on-site (which I needed to do one carry-on bag - includes free detergent: $6 to wash & $4 to dry with time remaining. Check-out was easy, just leave the key in the room. Final thoughts: I really liked this place, right up there with the best."
