The price matches the quality. I liked that the window opens, but the housekeepers are very noisy—especially in the mornings, every day.

The rooms were very clean and fresh smelling. Our room have the jet tub in it and that was wonderful. It was nice and quiet and just a relaxing stay, even on a Saturday night. The breakfast was good and they had nice options to choose from. The bed was super comfortable!! And the staff was friendly and very helpful thank you Jennifer for all your help. It was a pleasure meeting you and we will definitely be back again.
