This hotel is very new looking and clean. The breakfast is amazing. It is a self serve but it has everything you can imagine for breakfast. Complete hot served breakfast and a bunch of grab and go items. There is also a lot of places to eat surrounding the hotel all within 1/2 a mile. You can even walk to multiple places. There are no extra hidden fees. They just put a 50 dollar hold on your credit card.

This is a perfect place to stay. Room was great, bed is comfortable. Pillows were large and came in soft or firm. Staff was all over, cleaning fixing breakfast. Breakfast had pancakes, waffles, French toast, rolls, toast, baggies, sweet rolls, muffins, cereal, fruit, eggs, sausage links, sausage patties, yogurt and all the drinks. Pool was clean, the whole place looked new but it is barely 4 yrs old and well kept.

There was too much louder noise from the shuttle service started at 4:30am in the morning. I called front desk and they said they cannot do anything about it. When I was checking in, they gave me a room on the first floor very close to parking lot and I brought up noise concerns at that time but they assured that it will be quiet throughout the morning. It ruined my sleep and I had a very busy next day. Front desk even hang up on me when I complained. Very bad experience. Not coming here again at all. This is the difference between good brands and lower brands hotel.
