Great location, nice room! The person who checked us in on the first days ass extremely nice and professional, even though we checked in early. Staff was great all around. A lot of places (food and shopping) were walking distance from the hotel. Having a Trader Joe’s across the street was convenient as well. Only minor issue was when we were back at the hotel settling down for the evening, the channels on the TV had terrible to no signal. Overall, it was a nice hotel where we would stay again.
