Great

Everything was great for a 1 night stay! Fast and easy check-in, lady was super nice, close to stores/food and clean!! Parking was really the only sorta issue. There is a storage container on the side taking up like 4-5 spots and at 530am when I ran to the store and back no spots open when I got back but other than that was great!!!!

The hotel was clean and the staff responsive to our needs. The breakfast was very nice. Would love to see hard-boiled eggs available at the breakfast. Hotel was well situated next to a lot of different shopping and restaurant choices. Television was impossible to figure out with several remotes and instructions but nothing worked. We ended up not having any TV, which is really not a problem for us, but maybe for others. We would stay there again.
