We have stayed at this hotel several times and always happy with the service and the rooms. We especially like the kitchenette... It comes in very handy! However, the service we received upon check in this last time was disappointing. The girl at the front desk clearly didn't want to be there. We will likely stay again, with the hope that she isn't working during our stay.

WE LOVE THIS HOTEL! The staff is always amazing and always so willing to help when needed. The rooms are always clean, and no bad smell anywhere in the hotel. The rooms come with just about anything you would need but the front desk has a borrow locker if needed. Good safe area, lots to do around. Seriously can't say enough good things about this hotel!!
