The hotel was in a great area. Although the room could use some updating, it was clean and safe. Staff was amazing. We left something behind and they were able to get it back to us. The only issue we had was figuring out how to turn on the shower.

6/10 Okay

The noise of cars is very loud. The equipment is very poor, and there is no hot water in the morning. It's convenient to eat, and there are many restaurants to choose from around.

Our reservation was not recorded and they were sold out! The staff was amazing!! Can't say enough about how (Michael?) helped us thru the whole experience. Because of his help we were able to navigate the Expedia system and find rooms. Because of his efforts I would not hesitate to book there again.
