Rooms are clean and tidy overall. Spacious with nice small cafe options and microwave. Bathroom had good water pressure. Staff are friendly. Good, simple breakfast options and hot coffee. Fitness center and creepy AI vending machines. Parking lot is small. Weird gripe: I couldn’t plug in my laptop to the TV via HDMI because of the way the tv was mounted on the wall. It was physically impossible to be able to plug in a cable.
