Room was very comfortable and clean. Everything was great for our stay. There is a young lady at the front desk, I believe her name is Michelle, she is outstanding.
Staff was great. Room was nice but our coffee maker didn't work, our shower flooded the whole bathroom at 1 oclock in the morning, out passkeys quit working and we couldn't get in. The hotel compensated us for those issues and other than those it was ok. Very clean place to stay.
One night stay, easy check in amd check out. Every amenity we could need overnight.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Cleanliness
Rooms were good. Staff was courteous and helpful but since the hotel was understaffed hence we had to wait for our breakfast for almost one hour every morning. No matter what time you go down for breakfast, you have to wait for minimum 1 hr. This hotel had no buffet served breakfast like other hotels.
my suggestion would be they should start serving buffet for breakfast when lots of people are there.
Thanks
Decent place for a quick stay. We only stayed for a night but its just what you need for a short stay. Decent price for the rooms and close by to alot of restaurants and attractions, so it was convenient.
Easy access to the University and area restaurants
