"The property was fairly clean and well-kept. There is a convenient parking garage nearby, and they give you a free code to access it. They do try to sell you on vacation packages, but they accept it when you decline politely."

"Me and my family’s go to hotel. Staff is pleasant and we’re very warm and welcoming towards me and my family. I used the laundry room and business center easily. These amenities were convenient with me working remotely. Breakfast was pretty good, a few options and Ms. Sharon is such a sweetheart! Anything we asked for they never made us feel like we were a bother. Will definitely recommend and will be returning."
