Very clean and quiet. Staff was very friendly and in a great location for shopping and dining. We had a great time. Will definitely be staying there again. Although it was a great place to stay, the breakfast could have been a little better. Not much of a choice like other hotels have but still better than nothing.

Good location and easy to access. Staff was attentive and friendly. Property was kept clean. It would have been nice to have waffles for breakfast but the hot breakfast items of eggs, bacon or sausage patties were excellent.

Our stay was very nice. The hotel was clean and spacious. The location was great. The breakfast was just okay. The eggs and bacon were good but the selection was poor. It did offer both hot and cold food and was more than expected for a "continental breakfast ".
