Good choice for an economical stay. Was very quiet, easy to get around, with stores and restaurant choices. Hotel is a bit older and shows it in places, but it's clean and staff was generally ok. Breakfast not impressive, but plenty of options around area.

Clean But Dated

Room was clean although a bit dated. Staff was friendly. Parking spaces are small. But there are plenty of spaces.
