Great staff! I wish I got the employees name who got us checked in and then I needed some help and he didn’t even hesitate to help with my World Cup parking. Really impressive. It’s close to shopping and a Starbucks and only about 10 minutes or so from the baseball and football stadiums so super convenient location.

Staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfy ....my only complaint is that the bed linens and towels were extremely dingy. I asked for better towels and the front desk searched for towels that were white and not so worn. She was super understanding and helpful.
