Staff are super friendly. Rooms are cushy and clean. Gym and pool are adequate. Also clean and well maintained. And gym is open 24 hours. The small dining area has great green goddess dressing. The hot honey wings and duo dipping fries are tasty. The complementary coffee bar in lobby is a nice touch.
