Room was clean and spacious, Internet/TV connection was not great. Liked not having to interact with anyone for check in and check out as we arrived pretty late and left early the next morning. Having the check in process onine is an awesome feature! They do offer continental breakfast but did not get to check that out as we had to leave before it started.
