Great location. Very clean room with a well stocked kitchen. Easy parking. Great staff. The continental breakfast is “different” as you have to order it the night before to be delivered to your room the next day. You prepare your own toast and coffee. If you arrive after 6 the office is closed. There was construction, but the rooms are very well soundproofed.
