The hotel was clean. Beds were very comfortable. Gym had good equipment. The breakfast options were very good with healthy choices. Area was walkable around town. Our only complaint was the elevators didn’t work well. They were out of order a lot. We took the stairs a lot because of the wait time for elevators.
