When selecting a hotel for my 4 night stay, location was probably most important to me. Beyond that, I was very pleased with my room, the comfort of the bed, the free breakfast, and the cleanliness of my room. The AC worked nicely. Parking was plentiful. All in all, no complaints and I would happily stay there again.

"We had a wonderful stay! From the moment we walked in, the room smelled amazing and the small details, like the folded toilet paper, made it feel very upscale. The receptionist was incredibly welcoming, offering us water and engaging in genuine conversation. They were even thoughtful enough to give my daughter a treat and extra beverages when we checked out! I was also very impressed by the breakfast service; they consistently checked the quality and brought out fresh eggs and pastries throughout the morning. Such a thoughtful, high-quality experience."
