Very clean - provided the things I wanted without the things I do not, which kept the price down. Was pretty disappointed in the on site bar, but that would not keep me from staying there again. Great location! So clean, which is very important to me.

The view was fabulous !! Unfortunately our room was right above the play area and way into the night it was noisy with people playing corn hole. There was no sound barrier to the massive street noises either. The room itself and the staff were good.
