I can say without a doubt that staying here has been one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at a hotel. The staff is super supportive and polite, especially Nick, Hope, and Hero. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and it’s not noisy like other places. The only thing I would suggest is the hotel provides a little more variety with the breakfast menu. This is a place I would come to again.

L'hôtel est directement sur le bord de l'autoroute et le restaurant Hooters est relié à l'hôtel ! Je suis arrivée avec mon enfant et disons que je n'ai pas aimé. De plus notre chambre etait en face de l'autoroute et on entendait tellement fort le bruit des camions on a mal dormi. De plus l'air climatisé faisait beaucoup de bruit. Pour le reste c'est tres propre et rénové.

Great stay but don’t drink the coffee at breakfast

The only thing that I would offer as a suggestion is to dispose of the Nescafé coffee etc machine and buy carafes for coffee. The coffee was horrible! The coffee in the little packets in the rooms was much better.
