Rooms very clean and comfortable beds. Staff are friendly.breakfast is very minimal & little choices & you basically eat in the lobby where the chairs and sitting area are. To many kids running and screaming in the hallway at 11pm even after so many complaints to front desk staff did nothing. But overall good location & price from Expedia.
