"I loved that the property was open 24/7. The establishment was clean and quiet. The breakfast was wonderful e an assortment of meats/ cheeses/ fruits and pastries and more! Having the coffee machines going 24/7 was great as well! Although it was in an industrial area- it felt sade. There was a gas station next door and a Burger King a block aeay. The only negative was that we could not figure out the air conditioner and spoke to someone at the front desk but he never came by. It was too hot for me to sleep comfortably but the bed was comfortable and after being awake over 30 hrs traveling- I still slept. Lol"
