Once we finally were able to get in correct room, was very clean and comfortable. Had come down 3 times for a key, 2nd time it let us in a room that was occupied. And when you have driving all day, the last thing you want is to deal with this. Only one person early evening, and she was always on the phone.

Nice Hotel

The hotel was quite nice as the room was nicely sized and had modern decor. I found the bed though to be a bit uncomfortable, not horrible, but not great. The breakfast buffet was nice, and the fresh roasted coffee machine was a nice bonus.
