Had a later check-in. Staff was super friendly and helpful, and got me up and going easily with the EV charger. Nice, clean area all around. I had some meetings scheduled to take after check-out and the staff was super helpful to ensure I was able to attend those without issue.

Its a great hotel, clean and recently updated. They need to fix the latch on the door on the main level thats supposed to be for guest entry only. It doesn't latch and anyone can enter at any time.
