Breakfast was limited, including things like cereal, bagels, packed oatmeal, cuties, and so on. Not many fresh items like eggs, bacon, etc. Rooms were clean but could use deep cleans of shower/tubs and so on.

Breakfast had great options. Very close to the university, food and shops. Hotel was very clean and modern. Staff were friendly. Checking in and Out was smooth. Open area for families to hang out. We missed the pool due to it being closed for the season but setup looked great. Also had bag boards available outside and a little snack store. Cute. We would definitely stay here again.
