Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was clean with a very friendly staff. I asked to be moved to another room because my first room was right next to the elevator and it was noisy. Upon my request they moved me to another room with no problem . I was impressed with the hot water immediately in the shower and the high water pressure was incredible. The room was clean and the bed and bedding including the pillows were supper comfotable. I felt safe staying there. There are plenty of places to eat around the area. I would stay again. I just wished the breakfast was included or at least not $35.00 for the buffet breakfast.
