They helped use find a great takeout place and had it delivered to our hotel. They were just what we need after a long day of driving. Sometimes it’s just a smiling face is all you need to feel relaxed and welcomed.

"The rooms were fairly clean, and we had no real issues. For the price, it was a great value and a great location (if you’re doing a lot of stuff downtown). I would stay there again at that price. The biggest negatives for us were this: (1) The loading/unloading area, foyer, and elevator reeked of weed almost every time we passed through. Our family joked about getting a contact high. And (2) The option of connecting rooms was not an option (it wasn’t selectable upon booking online or at the front desk upon asking)."
