Hotel was in a good area and it was safe and clean. The only things I can say negative, where the bed was kind of uncomfortable, and they didn't have a free breakfast option. They did have an order out option in the room Other than that for a one night stay, it wasn't too bad.And the rates were reasonable

Never again.

We were given a room that had not been cleaned yet upon arrival. They quickly found us a clean room. The bathroom had urine smell. The beds were very worn and the mattresses are terrible.
