Had a great stay for our overnight spot. Crystal at the front desk was awesome. The room was spotless. And…great donuts and coffee! As it is on a main road the traffic is noisy so I used earplugs. My husband sleeps through everything and had no problem. Everything was in walking distance, which we love. Overall a great stay.
