Liked: Cleanliness
It was a good stay. The room is updated and spacious. It appeared clean, but had noticeable dust collecting at the bottom "shelf" of the bathroom sink, which naturally has me question what else is overlooked. Bed is very comfortable. There was an issue with wifi - which I had to personally contact the company for...? Other than that, it was just fine.

Had a pleasant stay here. Staff was professional and courteous. The facilities and room were clean. The breakfast also offered turkey sausage which is nice as non-pork breakfast meat isn’t usually offered at a lot of hotels.
