Nice room - great staff!

This hotel was very nice! The breakfasts were good and the entire staff was friendly and helpful. The location did not have good restaurants within walking distance but the hotel itself was great.

Beautiful experience, nice suite with fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Plenty of parking, friendly courteous staff. Sparkling clean. The immediate surrounding blocks are a tiny bit sketchy so walking around at night might not be a great idea, but the property itself is very safe. Only issue is the free breakfast only being from 6 30am-9am(as a sign states). But 5 stars, I look forward to coming back soon.
