The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. There was limited space in the closet, and the storage for clothing was limited to cubby holes.

2nd Visit - Highly Recommend
This is my 2nd time staying here. Just as good as the first. Highly recommend. Room is spacious enough to move around in and not feel overly cramped. Nice amenities and clean. Hotel isn’t run down or dated. Cost isn't too shabby either for such a nice place. Close to many things and staff is always friendly. This will be my go-to hotel for short stays moving forward.

Close, but no cigar.
Pretty nice, but two negatives. First, there are actually somewhat comfortable hideabed mattresses; unfortunately, this hotel did not have one. Second, a pretty meager "breakfast"; not even any fresh fruit.
