Staff was very courteous, room was as advertised and clean. Breakfast was good - had a lot of choices and items were frequently refilled/restocked as necessary. Definitely will stay here again, thank you!

I was disappointed because I had reserved a room months ahead with 2-queen beds and they gave us a room with 1 queen bed. I told the front desk and she told me they didn’t have the room I requested and that actually the room they gave me was more expensive than what I had requested. Really. The lady said she had emailed me to let me know ahead of time . I didn’t not receive an email, text or call. I would not agreed and it was too late & expensive to move hotels. So we had to work with what they gave us.

This is a perfectly adequate hotel. It was clean. Breakfast was good, except the watery oatmeal. I did not try any of the amenities. The coffee maker in the lobby was pretty good, but disappointed that there was none in the room. Bed’s were not bad. I had a hard time sleeping and I should have brought sound machine because of the noise in hotel. Over all really not bad for the price.
