The room was great! But the pull out couch was so uncomfortable and very thin. Could feel every single spring in that mattress. Plus there was a huge blue paint stain on the coushin. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was clean. The room said it could sleep seven. But it could barely sleep 5 bc of the pull out matress

Close, but no cigar.

Pretty nice, but two negatives. First, there are actually somewhat comfortable hideabed mattresses; unfortunately, this hotel did not have one. Second, a pretty meager "breakfast"; not even any fresh fruit.

I have been there before it was Spark by Hilton, everything is good but seems like who ever is running the place is trying to run the place at a very low budget, everything is good but standards have gone down, breakfast was better before, than now.

2nd Visit - Highly Recommend

This is my 2nd time staying here. Just as good as the first. Highly recommend. Room is spacious enough to move around in and not feel overly cramped. Nice amenities and clean. Hotel isn’t run down or dated. Cost isn't too shabby either for such a nice place. Close to many things and staff is always friendly. This will be my go-to hotel for short stays moving forward.
