The property was clean and well-lit. The area around the hotel had lots of things to do. The only downsides were the walls are a little thin. I could hear the people above me. Also, the A/C only went to 68 degrees and I still felt kinda warm.

excellent stay - hotel was pleasantly centrally located and the staff was great. The beds, pillows and comforters were awesome. Did not get to try the breakfast due to travel times.
