Hotel was nice and clean. Complimentary breakfast each morning was also nice. Better than expected for a free hotel breakfast. Staff were very friendly. Room was quiet and noise between rooms/hallways were very minimal. Would definitely stay here again.

Hotel room had a bad odor. Neighborhood felt a little sketchy, and there weren't family friendly places like a park in obvious walking distance. Bed was comfortable.
