Stayed here with my family for two nights. Room was clean and hotel was quiet during night time hours. Only thing that was a downer was the outlets near the beds were not the best. Plugs were very loose, had to use the outlets near the tv stand area. Other than that, I’d come back and stay again when we’re in town.
