Clean, excellent service, excellent breakfast and 24 hour water and coffee. Love this place! We have stayed here several times and it has been consistent.
Hotel was clean - room and bathrooms had fresh sheets and towels. Small refrigerator and iron w/board. Breakfast had eggs, bacon, potatoes, cereal, fruits, bagels, and toast. The attendant kept making sure items were stocked. I appreciated the coffee bar in the lobby with teas and hot cocoa. Very close to the airport. I didn't use this but they also offer a shuttle to the airport. I would def stay again staff very polite.
Great stay and very nice and clean, comfortable facility facility.

I appreciated the friendly staff and welcoming lobby and dining area. The breakfast items were varied and tasted fresh. Great choices of food and beverages.
We enjoyed our stay! The staff was very friendly. The room was clean and as pictured. Pool hours were convenient for a late night swim. Complimentary breakfast is always a plus (fresh ground coffee was the best hotel coffee I’ve ever had).

Clean but not homey
It felt very institutional. All of the floors are hard surfaces, which is very clean. Just felt like a very cold vibe.
Our stay was quick, but very nice! The staff was helpful and the room was exceptionally clean. Great stay over all! We'll be back for sure on our next visit out of town!
Very convenient to the airport for early morning flight - had breakfast ready to go at 4:30am! Very clean and Staff was great too. Would definitely stay there again.
