Hotel staffs were friendly. The room and bed were fine and comfortable. The continental breakfast was typical like scrambled liquid eggs, bacon/sausage, waffle maker and standard bread selection. we like the coffee a lot. one suggestion is about the fitness room and the pool. The fitness equipment were broken, rusted and showed being neglected. Pool was not heated to use.

Being located right next to the freeway, I was very worried that it would be loud. However, once inside the building it was VERY quiet. Our room was clean and cozy. We will definitely stay again in the future.
