Overall the property was great. I was already expecting it to be out dated but it was clean and hotel staff were excellent. It was quiet. Mainly from what I was able to see in my short stay tourist, and people who are there for work. That’s why I was there. I wanted something affordable and I didn’t need the fancy pool or anything else. I just needed a quiet place to get some work done and to go to my meeting the next day. There are lots of dining options and specialty coffee and pastry options as well. Overall, I would stay here again if I needed to come for the same purpose.

Happy second visit!

I’ve stayed here twice and both times I’ve been so happy! The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the people at the front desk are friendly & helpful! I needed early check in to coincide with moving my daughter on campus, and Luis went out of his way to assist me. Then I locked myself out of my room & no problem, Luis helped me right away! (And I so appreciated his understanding)! Good food and shopping are not too far away! Will definitely be back!!
