The room was clean, it did have a weird smell but was clean. The front desk guy who worked the 3pm-11 pm shift was very pleasant, and professional. The breakfast was good. It was a great stay.

We liked that there was a restaurant/bar on-site. The breakfast was average, we would have liked some more healthy options but appreciate the convenience and price. The rooms were clean.
