The front desk staff was delightful. The room was big. The bed was a little bit squishy for my taste. The free breakfast was amazing! The variety of foods was incredible, including make your own waffles, bagels, hard-boiled eggs, oatmeal, eggs, and bacon, fresh vanilla yogurt, with toppings to make a parfait, variety of juices, and of course, coffee.

This location, while not on campus is right on a bus line that takes you straight there in 10 min. Walk to the next bus stop and it’s actually a free ride. Nice evening snacks and typical morning breakfast. It worked perfectly for us urbanites used to taking a bus and walking places. Maple and Yolk next door as a bonus.
