I would stay at this property again. However when I arrived it was a Saturday night and there was a big event with a lot of noise being hosted by the hotel that I just felt was not for me. That being sad. The room was very clean. The bed and linens were very comfortable. The noise was a minimal in the room except for sirens and we were on the very top floor. Good ac, hot shower, lots of towels.

This Hotel needs major cleaning and refreshing.

We checked-in and immediately checked out. This location did not meet expectations for cleanliness or facility operations. Best thing I can say, is the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, desipite the late hour.
