My kids and I liked this hotel. It’s not in the center of the city so getting on road is easier than from many other places. Cleaness and amenities were all satisfactory. Staff were friendly and helpful. The ladies checked us in before hours and showed us the parking lot one block away that was a lot cheaper than their valet.
