9.2/10 Wonderful! (2,434 reviews)
What a terrific place! Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly and check-in could not have gone easier. The place was decorated exactly as presented online but what caught my attention was the nice, subtle clean scent to the air. Definitely not a chemical clean but a "clean, clean" and subtle scent. The room was the perfect size for us, very clean and tidy. The bathroom was not oversized but worked just fine for us. Plenty of hot water for showers. The bed was comfortable and offered plenty of pillows. Good supply of charging slots, free Wi-FI. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic and the offerings consisted of things you don't normally get in your standard fare at many chain hotels. Hot selections as well as the standard things. I initially chose this place based on the appearance, the lower nightly rate, the free parking and the complimentary breakfast. I was not disappointed and I would stay here again in a heartbeat. I LOVED this place!!

We had an awesome stay here! The location was perfect and it was a super easy to walk to the stadium. The rooms were super clean, and the hotel had everything we needed. The sports bar downstairs was such a nice bonus and had great food. The Hatch Smash burger was so good! Definitely recommend staying here if you’re in town.
