Clean, comfortable, full breakfast options.

No complaints -- the variety of breakfast items was a welcome addition to the clean and comfortable room and bath. Would stay again -- The front desk person, Mili, was most welcoming and helpful. She really made me feel at home, from the first night and throughout the stay.

Great stay

We had a fabulous stay. The location is very close to everything downtown. We did not try the breakfast but we went to Rise and Shine diner and it was absolutely amazing. I absolutely loved the full length mirror that hid the closet.

The property is fine - very average. Staff was friendly and super helpful which is always a plus. The front door being locked all the time and needing to be buzzed in - not so great feeling. Breakfast was very basic, a small step above a true continental. Things weren't all labeled which was a bit confusing - esp. coffee urns.
