Very nice and clean hotel

Very clean and bright hotel lobby. Room bed and AC are comfortable. Staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet or a la carte is tasty. Ample parking.The only downside is the Business Center doesn’t have any computer to print necessary documents.

8/10 Very good

Overall good stay. Disappointing breakfast

Only two minor “complaints” were the tvs in the room were outdated and no complimentary breakfast. $17 for a subpar meal seems a little steep. I ended up going down the street for $13 a person and received way better food.
