The staff was welcoming and the rooms were clean. The noise was an issue with windows open but less when closed. The primary reason I would not stay again is the uncomfortable beds. Mattress is too hard, linens stiff and scratchy, pillows flat and hard. Sadly, beds are a dealbreaker.

Traffic noise was bad in our room as hotel is right on the main drag. At about 9:45am on Dec 26, they started a *very* noisy power wash of the parking area that was just below the sleeping rooms. Very inconsiderate timing! When we checked out at 11am, the power wash was still noisily happening & looked like it would go on for a while. On the plus side, staff was cordial & breakfast was fairly good.
