The property was great, the only negative was the service desk person that was on duty 6/27/2025 @ approximately 430 pm. Basically I asked for 6 extra pillows due tonight have a toddler and wanted to form a barrier in the bed so he doesn't fall, the service desk gentlemen told me " absolutely not! Maybe 2 or 3 but definitely not 6!" It's absurd that a hotel that size doesn't have 6 extra pillows. Very rude and condescending.

It's located in a safe area. Very comfortable bedding. Good breakfast. The staffs are very friendly. The first night check in, we notice the noise outside of our room. We got an option to change to a quieter room. The next night when it was heavy rain, we notice the window was leaking. We were offered to switch to another room immediately. Excellent customer service. Highly recommended.
