I love the cleanliness and how attentive cleaning staff was. I also appreciated the effort to accommodate my needs by staff. I will be recommending again, the only downside was that our mini fridge smelled so horrible but it was a recently renovated room with great cleaning staff.

The property had ample parking and the check in and check out process was super smooth. The staff was super friendly and helpful as well. My only issue was that the floor was a little dusty but the property had soft water which made up for that previous issue.

The hotel was alright, nothing fancy. The room was small, but clean. There was a nice young man working the front seat and he was very pleasant. He recommended places for dinner and other places of interest.

If you are looking for a no fuss check-in and check out during your stay, this place is superb. Check in is via a kiosk, with an online Rep via video. The entire process was about 5 minutes. Room was stocked with coffee, snacks and water. Bed, super comfie. My only complaint, was the lack of counter space near the bathroom sink.
