The hotel was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Complimentary breakfast was a bonus. Our only complaint was that there wasn’t enough hot water to shower and the hotel was noisy at night. We used a white noise app on our phones and that did the trick to drown out the noise. Overall was a very pleasant stay and we would come back again.

The only spoiler for a perfect score was that I was not advised in advance of arrival that the kitchen did not operate on Mondays and Tuesdays. I was a late arrival and this was not welcome news. Fortunately, the desk supervisor pointed me across the street to a delightful Mexican restaurant and saved the day
