The front desk guy upon arrival was very nasty initially even though I called and spoke with him the night before! The rest of the staff was amazing and we enjoyed our overall stay! My son goes to college there so this will be my hotel of choice!

Just eh.

Just another average hotel with below average breakfast offerings. I am a Hilton member and still could not get wifi. Hate community soaps which is what they have. No free parking…had to park at my son’s place. Morning coffee very acidic. Eh. Just eh.
