This is one of the cleanest hotels I’ve ever stayed at. A bonus is that they are also pet friendly and have a dedicated area for dogs and dog poop bags. I saw maintenance staff removing garbage bags, mopping, and cleaning the work out room. The work out room was definitely above average with kettle bells and a good carpet of equipment.

Property was nice, very trendy decor. Lacking enough staff to work though. Only one staff at the front desk for check in and it was busy. At one point the front desk staff had to leave and put up a sign that she was away from the desk. The breakfast crew was only 1 person too. Food was running out during the busy time. There was a hair in the eggs.
