Friendly front desk staff, quick check in. Room was very clean but did have a strange damp feel about it. Our room door didn’t lock the entire time we were there- as in, we didn’t need a key to enter our room so that was concerning. We did alert the front desk who said they would “look into it”. Breakfast was not great- not many choices and the eggs were cold all three mornings. Overall it was a nice hotel and the cleanliness was very much appreciated

Numerous restaurants nearby. Room very clean; however, walls are too thin and neighboring room tenants and TV could be heard talking into the night.
