My family and I had a wonderful stay!! Luz made us feel especially at home, it was a delight to see her every morning! The front desk staff, housekeeping and maintenance was absolutely a joy to be around. It felt like home away from home. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast, they had many options including hot food which was extremely helpful since we were traveling with kids! Parking was very easy & the coffee at the lobby was very convenient and tasty! The rooms were spotless upon check-in and the beds and pillows were so soft and cozy!! The microwave and mini fridge were a lifesaver!!! I have nothing but great things to say, we had a lovely stay!

The check in and staff were really respectful and professional, however, the room was a little dusty when we arrived. I was sneezing non stop the first night we arrived. Also outlets by the headboard and all around the room needed some upgrades. Also sometimes I need me some Netflix and relax time in the room but they don’t have smart tvs.

The room would change temperature, it would be warm one minute and cold 5 minutes later. We never touched the thermostat. Not sure why it did that. Strange noises came from the bathroom, like a mouse in the trash. Also weird beeps in the room. The room was comfortable and clean.

Was a very comfortable stay in a convenient location. The staff are all so friendly and hospitable. The way they have thought of little details - such as offering a complimentary sound machine for guests - really showed their thought and care. If we’re ever in the area again, we would 1000% stay again.
