    The room was spacious and exceptionally clean, with comfortable bedding and a well-equipped kitchenette. Free parking was available, which was a significant advantage. The complimentary breakfast offered a variety of fresh options each morning, and the staff was consistently friendly and helpful, making my work trip much more pleasant.

    bright breakfast
    fun pool
    limited fruit options

    We LOVE this place and always stay here when visiting family. The breakfast room is bright and has a great variety. The pool is a fun spot for the kids. I wouldn’t mind a few more fruit options, like bananas, at breakfast, but overall it was a fantastic stay! 😊

    friendly staff
    warm cookies

    I was just visiting for a concert and the staff was incredibly friendly always with a smile and a warm cookie in the evening which was just what I needed after a long day it felt like they were actually glad I was there

    It wasn't exactly a bargain but for the experience I got it was still acceptable

    comfortable bed
    great shower
    relaxing lounge
    tight seating

    I had a fantastic time, especially enjoying the amazing shower and the comfy bed that made me feel right at home. The game room was a nice bonus, and I appreciated the relaxing lounge area to unwind. The only hiccup was the breakfast seating being a bit tight on a busy morning. 😊

    clean room
    solid breakfast
    slow elevator

    Solid breakfast options with well-stocked items each morning. Enjoyed the spacious, clean room which had a comfortable bed, making it a decent spot to recharge.

    The overall experience felt overshadowed by a couple of concerns. First, I found black mold in the bathroom ceiling, which raised some red flags. The elevator also seemed a tad slow during busy times, affecting my use of the facility. Lastly, I caught a whiff of cigarette and pot smoke in common areas, which might not sit well with everyone.
