Nice property. The woman at the counter was very helpful. She gave great recommendations. The room was big and clean. Bathroom was huge. Only downside was the hot water in the shower. At night hot water ran out. In the morning, it just doesn’t get super hot. Breakfast was good.

When we checked in the system was in reboot so the incidental charge could not work. It rebooted 9pm daily according to staff and we were there just at that time. So we waited about ten minutes at the lobby which was not a good experience.

Could have been better

We had stayed here once before and really liked it, but this time didn’t impress us the same way. Our room was near a noisy ice machine, and the outdoor light shone through our curtains, even with the blackout curtains drawn. While the beds are comfortable, they are advertised as queen, when in fact they are double beds.
