This hotel was extremely clean. The room was absolutely wonderful. I loved the walk in shower. I am thankful for the refrigerator and microwave. It had update furnishings.

This chain is well-known, but it should be in better condition. What impressed me most was the poor condition of the carpets, stained and dirty. The location is excellent, with plenty of food and shopping options.
