The room was excellent. The only negative was the Continental breakfast. We went down at 8:30 and there was no coffee left and scarcely anything else to eat. I really wasn't expecting to be competing for what was left to eat with the hotel cleaning staff. The yogurt however was surprisingly delicious.

El hotel esta bastante limpio en las areas comunes. Por ejemplo los pasillos y la cafeteria. La habitacion muy limpia, un poco reducido el espacio y lo mejor es que no hay alfombra en la habitacion. El desayuno caliente que incluye huevo revuelto, cafe, yogurth y fruta es un buen complemento para iniciar el dia

Very clean, well kept facility, and rooms. Parking lot completely surrounded in lights. No dark spots that I could see. Friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast was wonderful and free! Loved the King bed room! Very comfy, 2 places to sit other than the bed. Very clean room and bathroom. I would definitely stay there again and I highly recommend.
