Would stay here again for sure. Everything was clean. Beds and pillows were super comfortable. Water pressure in the shower was amazing. Breakfast was good too. Pool was on the smaller side but we didn’t swim so it didn’t matter to us…

Overall, pretty average stay

Stayed here out of convenience. Work/gym was right around the corner and was having work done at my place. Nothing special about checking in. Room was a good size. Bed was very comfortable. Only negative was the sound of the heating/air conditioning system. Im a light sleeper so woke me up during the night. Overall, pretty okay stay.
