Property was clean, great bed in the room. Only negative was the room next door. There was a connecting door between my room and theirs. The gap at the bottom of the door allowed light into my room and I could hear the guest on the phone clearly.

Not sure about this app any longer

First thing is first, I booked this stay for the wife and I for Valentine’s Day. When I get there I wasn’t aware that I would be sharing a whole floor with a teenage wrestling team that wound stay up all night long. Making all times of noise and it was not! a good stay for us. Then asked if we could change room the lady that was checking people in rudely says”No” and I was just like I have to change this to her response “Do what you gotta” which ticked me off something bad however I kept my cool. This was a horrid experience!!

Good breakfast, Comfy beds, Friendly staff

For a quick last minute stay, this is fine. While my room was clean, ample storage, bed very comfy and eco fixed toiletries - the TV youtube and netflix did not work, tired bathroom floor and bath tiles. No sitting area in lobby other than the breakfast area. Lobby and elevators could use a good cleaning/update. However, the staff was incredibly kind and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was very good and all and it was fine. The price is low, and considering the room was comfortible and the breakfast was included; I was content.
