Very consistent and clean

First room had a very strong cleaning product smell. Spoke to the front desk and they immediately changed our room. Service was very nice and personable. Easy in, easy out. Breakfast buffet not the best, but not the worst. Sausage and eggs had no flavor and could not eat them. Coffee and juice options were good. Bagels and danish were good.

Just book it

Love this hotel! Very clean and with excellent staff from the front desk to the cleaners. They serve breakfast in the morning which consists of sausage, eggs, waffles. As well as cold items like muffins and cereal. Theres just 2 negatives I would give. I was in need of a laundry room and theres was out of order/none available. The other being the location of the hotel. Its on a very busy 1 way street. God help you if you miss the turn into the parking lot. You will easily spend another 20 min if not longer trying to turn around then to go back the way you just came. Yet its still 5 stars from me!

The room was great. The parking lot, surrounding area and lobby is a little rough, but a good value and no issues at all w the room itself.
