Very clean and quiet stay for us. The property is newly renovated and has a nice atmosphere. The room was large although could have helped if they had a sofa bed in the room. Coffee station at the lobby was great and there is a pool bar. But no onsite restaurant. The area around the hotel is quiet and clean. Loved our stay here.
