Clean room, plenty of parking and options for meals a nice walk away or a very quick drive. Mel at the office is absolutely top tier. She does calls ahead of time to ensure you’re all set and is an absolute delight to meet in person. She’s one of those people that just exudes positivity. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

This was the 3rd time staying here and I love the service that Mel provides. She has great recommendations and I always feel safe here. It's nearby many shops, a couple casinos, and not that far from some great basketball games. Will definately stay here when I'm in Norman again.

The room and bathroom was very clean, and the office manager Mel was very kind to provide information about things to do in the area. The hotel is very close to coffee shops, restaurants and the Oklahoma museum of nature, that we visited. She also contacted me before arrival to confirm details about the room. I did not see the email until we arrived, but we had exactly the room that we needed. Highly recommend this hotel if you are in Norman!
