Good Place, Worth it. Need to improve Breakfast
Good hotel, very cleaned, employees were professional and helpful.
The only downside was the breakfast options.
Only 2 fruits and 2 hot choices.
Besides that it was a good place to stay.

This is our 4 or 5th time staying at this TRU. My husband's family is in Mandarin 5 minutes away. It is alway clean, sheets are soft, beds are comfy, parking so easy, coffee hot and god in the lobby, staff is friendly and the price is great! We also have met the nicest guest in the commmon areas. Family friendly. We just spent a happy 5 days there.
