I highly recommend this property. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Breakfast was always good. Lots of food to choose from. It was always hot and fresh. The pancakes never disappointed. The ladies that served breakfast were always very nice. They made sure to keep things replenished and always kept the area spotless. I also liked that the property provided an unlimited amount of Dove products from bodywash, hand soap, lotion, shampoo and conditioner in our room. That was a huge plus for me.

Overall the hotel was fine, no issues at the property. As soon as you leave the parking lot, the immediate and surrounding area is over run with meth heads on the streets and panhandlers. Super uneasy feeling pulling up to nearly every traffic light near the hotel.

Nice, clean hotel with friendly staff. The only issue we encountered was with the ironing board. It was not in good condition and kept collapsing when any pressure was applied to the board. Reported to Santiago upon check out. Also, Santiago was very nice and pleasant during the check-in process.

Nice property hood adjacent

The property is surrounded by a less desirable area. Do not plan to travel here by public transportation. That being said, the property itself was quite nice. Looks like a newer hotel surrounded by older less nice area. The property had a decent fitness center and a continental breakfast. Breakfast had the typical. Boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, pancake area, toast, bagels, peanut butter and jam. Juices were OJ, Cran, Apple and water. Coffee and tea was available. Cereal as well. Room was really nice and the pool was decent. Outside area was nice and neat. The stay was nice just area was not great.
