Lorraine

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I really enjoyed my stay. My only minor complaints are that the bed was way too soft and the elevator way too slow and only 2 for so many rooms. I also think all the single use plates, cups, and cutlery at breakfast is really wasteful and I would love a “real” coffee cup in my room, not one tiny paper cup. The staff were wonderful and I was grateful to get late check out. The proximity to U of S is second to none and having the parking was wonderful.
