Solid midscale hotel and a great value for the price. Not fancy, but very clean and comfortable. Free parking and internet were included and worked well. Rooms were well maintained and quiet. Around $100 per night, it’s hard to beat for a reliable, no-frills stay.

This is a basic hotel that was clean and comfortable during my stay. The room was quiet, the bed was comfortable, and Wi-Fi worked without issues. It’s not a fancy property, but it was well maintained and met expectations for the price, which was around $120 per night. For Boca Raton this was a solid deal!
