I appreciated the free breakfast. It offered a lot of choices. The hotel's location is ideal, right across the street from many restaurants. I also took advantage of the free laundry room. Transportation was easy to access. I used Uber without any issues.
I noticed a slight cigarette smell in the hallway on one occasion. It dissipated quickly, so it did not affect my overall stay.

fantastic stay!

I was thrilled with my room. It included a full-sized fridge, a microwave, and even a stove! having dishwashing liquid available was very convenient. the provided breakfast buffet was amazing. It was one of the best i have ever experienced. the staff were also friendly. They helped me with directions and recommendations.
The hotel charged me for parking, and i was informed that i could only park for an additional two hours after checkout. This was quite inconvenient.
