Great stay overall.

Great place. Clean spacious rooms. Had a good stay. Parking is a valet-only, but complimentary (you will want to tip the guys running the valet though as they were doing an amazing job). The only issue I had was- I especially pick hotels that have daily housekeeping because I like my bed made when I get back to my room later in the day. One of the the two days I was there, they did not do it which was annoying.

We have stayed at hotel Eleo numerous times and have loved it there. It’s safe and convenient for our needs. This is the first time though that the hotel wasnt clean and we stayed when it’s wasn’t a busy football weekend.
