Was rather surprised for an out of towner, Signature Inn is a gem, quiet at night amidst a busy street. Staff is pleasant and accommodating. A sufficient break-fast. Rooms clean and orderly. If there’s a problem please speak to staff. Although not affiliated, I will book in Miami, San Francisco and this location again. (Housekeeping please try to be a bit more quiet when early morning cleaning…lol!!!) Overall 5 stars because there is also shopping and eateries near by, thank you kindly!!!
