Spacious, clean suite with kitchenette

Spacious suites with stocked kitchenette and large bathrooms. Free breakfast was minimal, but having our own kitchen and coffee pot made it perfectly convenient. Clean and comfortable, great value for the price and good location. Will definitely stay here again.

I stayed for work. The check-in process is easy. They send messages to you to confirm reservation and that you can reach out via text for any questions/concerns. The front end person was really nice. Very quiet and spacious room.

Great hotel but bed not so much

Very clean and friendly staff. Beds were a bit hard. I like a firm bed but it was really hard and not that comfortable.
