Comfortable stay

Everything looked and smelled quite clean. Hot breakfast options had a good variety, and the coffee was from a fresh ground dispenser, so was quite good too. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The one slight downside was $5/night parking.

The room was clean, but the shower was not. Some of the receptacles in the room didn’t work. Other than that, breakfast was good. The guy at the front desk wasn’t that friendly, but it could’ve been worst.
