Hotel was just okay. For a non-smoking hotel, the smell of cigarette smoke was still present in the rooms and hallways. The breakfast was minimal and not what I expected given prior reviews.

Highly recommend!

The room was spacious and clean, I loved the liytle kitchen and living room areas. The beds were very comfortable. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was the room keys stopped working a few times but staff was prompt to replace them and very friendly. I want to give extra kudos to the management and breakfast staff. They handled a large breakfast crowd with grace, kindness and competency.

The staff at this hotel were top notch. Angela and Miss Toni at the front desk could not have been nicer. We had to check out early due to an unexpected situation and they were both very gracious and helpful. Room was clean, hotel lobby was clean and welcoming. Plenty of parking. The only downside to this hotel was that the area it is located in seems sketchy.
