Room was very nice and we so appreciated the upgrade. Little concerned with people hanging out in the parking lot. Don’t know what that was all about.

Rooom was super clean and I was very pleasantly surprised by the amount of space (had a kitchen area, breakfast bar as well as large lounge area) - also very convenient for parking and some of the local shops. Staff were very helpful and even let me back into the room after I'd checked out and forgotten my airpods!

Having a full refrigerator and dishwasher is appreciated! The chargers next to one side of the bed didn't work, which found out the hard way, but the rest did. Internet is not great, but free--the paid one is only slightly better than the normal internet, so you should be fine with the free. Breakfast buffet is clean and restocked often; for celiac there aren't gluten free options except the eggs, which is not a fault, just a heads up. There is a $5 a day charge for parking--the lot is not gated or patrolled, so this seemed a bit silly to me. The location is great, super close to food, parks, and the highways, yet far enough away to be super quiet. There's a weird, never open house looking building in the lot up above the hotel, so we spent half the time in the hotel trying to figure out what it was and when the trucks were moved--we had a whole back story going on, for what I'm sure is a normal building. :) Would highly recommend for family travel as well.

This property has gone downhill over the years, when I entered the back building where my room was, the smell of the food was unbearable, people smoking weed on the patio. I wouldn't stay here again

Our room was so clean and it was great to have a little kitchen with a bigger fridge. I was able to make stuff to bring to Thanksgiving dinner. The breakfast was really terrific as well. We didn't bother with maid service. Just easy enough to get clean towels. I would definitely stay here again.
