Good room!

Loved the room. Unfortunately, the hotel common areas were under construction but will look forward to another stay when renovations are complete. The location is very convenient, as well. The only suggestion I have would be to stay competitive by offering a continental breakfast (altho that may increase the room price, I suppose) Thanks!

Great hotel for the price.

We originally chose this hotel for the price not expecting anything great. We were very surprised. Very nice hotel at a very affordable rate.
