The hotel was okay for the price. The breakfast was below expectations. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean. the bathtub is slippery and doesn't include a non-skid mat, so be careful.

Clean!
Very Clean and Neat. GREAT location...near the University and all major highways. Nice breakfast bar, but unfortunately, no cookies for me. They were always out of them :( I wish the pool was all indoor...it was a little misleading as the pool was part indoor and part outdoor. A little too cold for swimming in, but the jacuzzi was just perfect.
