Overall for the value and location, I would stay here again. Room cleanliness was okay except for hair on the shower wall. Also, walls between rooms are pretty thin. Breakfast was okay given the price of the room. Waffles, bagels, yogurt and some fruit.

Not awful, not wonderful. Everything was…ok. The outside entrance and the heating/cooling unit created more noise than we were used to. Take that into consideration if you’re a light sleeper.

The room was fine. I had a hard time understanding the clerk. Went for breakfast and the coffee maker wasn't working, and half of the juice machine wasn't working.
