Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The layout of the rooms was not designed very well. But it was very clean. Small TV compared to other hotels we've stay. And it was positioned a very odd place. This was a suite and maybe that is why I wasn't impressed as much. It had a kitchenette for folks who want a longer stay. We were just there for the night. No ice machines because they had fridges with auto ice cube dispenser. Problem was the ice was "old" and the freezer had an odor. Although it wouldn't be my first choice I think it would be nice for families that want a longer stay.
