If you are looking for a no fuss check-in and check out during your stay, this place is superb. Check in is via a kiosk, with an online Rep via video. The entire process was about 5 minutes. Room was stocked with coffee, snacks and water. Bed, super comfie. My only complaint, was the lack of counter space near the bathroom sink.

The property had ample parking and the check in and check out process was super smooth. The staff was super friendly and helpful as well. My only issue was that the floor was a little dusty but the property had soft water which made up for that previous issue.

The place is clean, nearby the event we attended. Several Asian restaurants close by. The only down side is that doesn’t have a human working in front desk most of the time, so it’s very hard to deal with when you have a question, you can only ask the virtual assistant or call the number provided in Expedia after booking; which is very difficult for elderly people especially if the elderly has vision problems.
