The hotel was clean. Beds were very comfortable. Gym had good equipment. The breakfast options were very good with healthy choices. Area was walkable around town. Our only complaint was the elevators didn’t work well. They were out of order a lot. We took the stairs a lot because of the wait time for elevators.

Staff was great. Very accomodating. Elevators were a small issue. Went down for a while and the parking level elevators werent working at all. Other than these small issues everything was great. Very clean. The cleaning staff was amazing and went the extra mile to make sure EVERYTHING was clean. They were the most impressive cleaning team that I have ever witnessed. Great breakfast as well. Thanks for a great stay.
