10/10 Excellent

"We checked in late (1130p) and had to be let in by the staff. The concierge was extremely friendly and made check in simple and pleasant (especially since we had a long night of travel). She definitely made an impression! Room was clean, and quiet aside from our neighbors. The breakfast was decent, amenities were nice, location was great for our needs. Staff was friendly as we were leaving as well! Definitely recommend, especially for the fair price!"
