The room was wonderful full kitchen with dinnerware & a small dishwasher. Amazing! Wish I could stay there long term for work. Staff was very helpful, and breakfast was set up on time. A little disappointed they didn't have a dog available to borrow as an amenity. I'd stay there more often if that was an option.

The hotel is very clean and the staff are really nice and very helpful. The only thing that kinda bothered me is they missed to tell us that units or rooms are not done daily. and expected to see a nice breakfast with the price i had to pay. Waffles were good with bacon and i was told that bacon is too expensive to be served. Fruit choices were very limited.
