Clean, rooms are massive, staff are VERY friendly, my only complaint was that they advertise airport shuttle which was why i booked through them, but because our flight got in at almost midnight they couldn't shuttle us. So if that's a big deal for you make sure the shuttle runs wren you're flight will be coming in. Other than that, this is a slam dunk for value and comfort

Property was centrally located near many attractions in downtown. Easy to walk to everything. The hotel itself was very clean and and updated. People working were kind and friendly. The only con and it is a minor one at that is the hotel walls are very thin.
