I liked how neat the room looked ,the breakfast was delicious ,the greeters hospitality was good and I love the downstairs area as well .

Me and my spouse paid for a King bedroom but there was only a queen left so we took it anyway. There was some hair in the drain of the shower and the shower wasn’t that clean also one of the towels decorated in the bathroom had a spot on it, The bed on the left side had a dirty blanket as well so we just used the one on the left side, and the floor in the hallway was pretty sticky which also led to the floor in the room being a bit sticky .

I liked pretty much everything. The staff were all courteous, friendly, and professional, especially Ashton!

I did not like the fact that on the weekend the exterior garbage container was overflowing, with some garbage on the ground, and because maintenance personnel were not scheduled until Monday, that is how long it remained- marring the beautiful entrance to the hotel. Also in the room- All the lighting was on one wall, that desk lamp lighting was unsuitable for me, sorry.

I loved the design of the interior, the room space was nice as well as the bedding and bathroom facilities. The staff were kind and although being asked lots of questions they answered with kindness. I also enjoyed the breakfast selections that were put out every morning. I would definitely stay again. I felt safe and I loved that they keep your personal information private and make sure you are comfortable.

The lady at the front desk was so incredibly sweet and kind! The beds were comfortable and room was very spacious. We were overall impressed especially given the great price as well.

No issue that I can think of besides that there weren’t enough towels in the room (slept 4 and only 2 towels) but we easily got one from the front desk.

Hall entrance to room lights didn’t work. The floor wasn’t particularly clean. There was only a few squares of toilet paper in the bathroom and no replacement. Breakfast was ok nothing to brag about, didn’t look good enough to even bother with we went elsewhere.

The breakfast was buffet style which was good. They had freshly squeezed orange juice and had good breakfast foods. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay.I had a very late check in and a staff member stayed until I was all checked in. She was very sweet and kind.

It was Clean. I felt the price was economical. Staff I encountered were friendly and helpful.

I had no issues, but there is a large homeless population in the area - especially at the exit for the hotel.
