Very clean property and friendly staff. Downfall was the AC unit was SO loud. It sounded like a rocket ship in our room. We asked them to take a look at it and it seemed to help quiet it a tad, but was still pretty noise. Other than that it was a nice stay.

Parking was an issue at night, but there was no issue with check-in or out. I was only there to sleep for a few hours, but this place is a little dated, and the price was pretty high for what this was, luckily this was a business trip and not personal, or I would have opted for another place. Staff (check-in person) was terrific, friendly, and pleasant. Have to give kudos when it's deserved. I did not checkout any breakfast options before leaving, so no comment on that!

Long wait time to check in. Friendly staff, clean room. Only restaurant nearby was Hilton Garden Inn Grill & Bar, which was excellent. You should consider promoting them as it is walkable (we were driving a large moving truck & didn’t want to drive for dinner).
