Very clean and solid modern amenities. Our only issue was the loud HVAC system in the room. The fan in the unit was loud enough to disturb our sleep. At first we thought they were preforming road repair outside, but discovered it was the fan in the room causing the disturbance, we finally shut the air conditioning off very early in the morning.

Very nice people at check-in and check-out. Very helpful with shuttle service to airport. Room was clean and comfortable, breakfast buffet offered a lot of choices and was ready for persons who had to leave hotel early. Very much enjoyed my stay and will book again when I'm in the area.

The room was provided with a Keurig coffeemaker that did not function. (Room 217.) The continental breakfast provided was excellent. I like to have more dependable dim lighting capacity than what was provided in the bathroom.

A great stay!
We were here just one night on a layover. We arrived after 11 PM and the front desk woman was very friendly, helpful, and just a pleasure. She gave us all pertinent information we needed to have a successful stay and catch the next morning’s flight. Room was very nice, clean, and comfortable.
