Staff is great! Brett and Issac were really nice & helpful. Hotel is in a prime location that’s close to the University with a bus stop and late night sub shop nearby. However, the accommodations need some renovations, especially for the weekend nightly price you pay.

The property was pet friendly. The checkin was very easy. Staff very nice and helpful. The room was clean and quiet. My only complaint would be that the pillows were flat and hard. The blanket was very thin. In the bathroom the tp holder was cheap plastic and coming off the wall.

Rooms are always clean and staff is very nice and accommodating. Our flight was delayed and we didn’t arrive at the hotel until 3:00 am. They greeted us immediately and graciously offered a later checkout time to allow us to sleep.😴 We will definitely be back. 😊
