We enjoyed our stay from beginning to end. The staff was accommodating and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The towels were soft and clean. The shower had great water pressure. We really appreciated all the on demand features included with the tv. We had lots of movie choices from which to select. The only downside was the freeway noise but that couldn’t be helped. We would definitely stay again.
