The first room smelled bad. So we moved to another room. Its an ok hotel but watch your feet. I found a flea on my toe. I don't have pets and no fleas in my home, but I found one at this hotel. The breakfast was ok. But it was a little spendy for what wr got.

We had a standard 2 queen size bedroom and it was a good size. Our stay was quiet and pleasant. I like the free continental breakfast and easy free parking unlike some hotels in downtown. Overall it was good besides the slow draining sink in the bathroom.
