We stayed here to be near my father in the hospital. The hotel has comfortable rooms, which appear to be recently renovated and they also have excellent staff. We spent two nights here in January and this last stay was our third and fourth nights. We would definitely stay here again due to the central location to everything and the wonderful staff.
