Overall great place. My only complaint would be our neighbors! This guy was up all night yelling. In and out the door down the hall. It was a sleepless night for me!
Breakfast was excellent and the service by Christine was excellent! She deserves a great deal of credit for attending to a large variety of food as well as assisting guests.
Hotel very clean in both my room and the common areas.
Room is spacious. Breakfast has all the essentials to get us started for the day. Freshly brewed coffee in the lobby for guests 247 tastes great. But I'd prefer a coffee machine in the guest room so we didn't have to go to the lobby every time we wanted a hot drink.
room was clean. Breakfast options were good. Liked the coffee being accessible 24 hours.

Unfortunately, I had to change my room due to the pet smell as I learned that all rooms are pet friendly. I recommend only having a section of the hotel being pet friendly as they really bothered my allergies. However, when I brought it to staff’s attention they were extremely attentive to give me another room.
Suzette at the front desk was fantastic! Marya did a wonderful job cleaning the room. Breakfast great. 24 hour coffee was a godsend. Everything was clean and worked perfectly.
Stayed here during work trip. Excellent location, clean room, friendly staff, delicious breakfast and unlimited coffee. Definitely would stay here again
A nice and clean and comfortable place to stay with a friendly and helpful staff.
The breakfast was good and comparable to the offering of similar hotels.
Be mindful that the ‘dining’ area is a little smaller, so if you eat at a popular time you may need to be patient and wait for seating to become available.
Good ice cream place right next door!
Overall this was a good stay. The only problem was the hall doors which really seemed to serve no purpose. Our room was at the end of the hallway so any time someone had to go in/ out of our hall they would open the door. The door would slam against the wall when opening and slam shut making a loud noise and shaking the wall. We heard this late at night and early in the morning which affected our quality of sleep.
