Excellent chain hotel

The hotel is new-- it's one of only two buildings on the road, which dead-ends right here. That's good because there's no traffic and no external noise. Our room was very spacious and included a sofa, a desk, a large closet, and a mini-kitchenette. Our only complaint is that the lighting in the bathroom was not bright enough to do makeup or hair very well. Breakfast was more than adequate, with a variety of hot and cold choices. The breakfast room was open from 6:00 to 10:00, giving people much more time than usual to eat. I called this an excellent "chain hotel"because if you're looking for something luxurious or historic, this is not it. But if you're looking for something convenient and comfortable, you've found it here.
