9/10 Wonderful! (3,213 reviews)
We were SUPER impressed with the hotel cleanliness and the staff was very, very friendly and helpful. This hotel offers express checkout. There was no need today to line up and speak to anyone to check out. We just dropped our key in the designated box and left at checkout time. Super convenient. Breakfast was absolutely delicious with a large assortment of choices. To use the elevator it required a room key which was a nice security feature. The only complaint we had was the size of the actual room. Our room had a queen bed. There was room to walk around the bed but not much more. But for the price? This hotel was well worth the stay.
