The hotel was clean, and our room was large. The staff was wonderful, and they wanted to ensure that we had a great trip. We were greeted by Maxwell when we arrived who made us feel welcomed. The location was perfect. There was a Bagel place across the street was awesome. We ate breakfast once in the hotel and the food was good but pricy. We did eat dinner once in the hotel and the food was delicious.
