A pleasant change
Excellent hotel! We moved to this place after a bad experience with another and couldn't have been happier! Comfy beds, clean room, excellent staff, no airport noise.
Would definitely stay here again.

Cozy!
The staff was nice and the bedding was cozy. The continental breakfast was way above average, which is a plus in my book. Parking is free. Free parking, great and also free breakfast and cozy bedding make it a great place to stay!!

Okay stay.
Used the gym. That was great! Front desk clerks were nice! Loved that there was a Starbucks right next door! Pretty quiet at night. No housekeeping services, so had to ask for fresh towels. Breakfast was ok. Other than that, hotel was ok. Would probably stay there again because of the Starbucks and the gym. MAYBE.

Staff was friendly, property is older, we opted out of room service but found a pair of used underwear under the bed, no waste basket in bathroom or by the sink. Had issues with AC unit keeping the room cool, and the hallways were muggy. The pool was nice.

Their policy is to clean rooms every other day. If you stay more than one day like what we did, the room was not cleaned daily.

Convenient and comfortable stay
Enjoyed the location. Watching the planes come and go was fun. Convenient to amenities. Staff was friendly and attentive. Space was clean and comfortable. Never tried the pool, so no comment there. But overall I would stay here again.

Excellent location, across the street from the Hiller Museum, where we were attending an event. Nothing too fancy about the hotel, but it is clean. Included breakfast was about what you'd expect. One issue they need to look into: Watching TV is a challenge. Lots of blips and pixilations on every channel.

Not impressed
Woke at at 4 am to smelling cigarette smoke coming through the vents- didn’t smell in hallway so it must be from another floor? Odor strong through- couldn’t sleep after that. VERY OVERPRICED PROPERTY!! Old and dated, small
