The office staff member was helpful with questions about local restaurant options. The room was clean and nicely lit. The beds were comfortable with nice bedding. The included breakfast was very nice to have. I appreciated the hard boiled egg and bagels, juice/fresh fruit, and coffee. We would stay again when visiting the area.

The shower was incredibly low. If I had to guess it was about 5 and 1/2 ft from the floor of the tub. Staff was mediocre at best, at one point we canned down for service for cleaning the room and we forgot to give them our name, and when we called back to give them our name, they pretended like they already knew who we were. The funny thing is is that we were calling from a different phone than what was registered on our profile so there was no way they could know what that cell phone number was registered too. So they flat out misrepresented and did not own the outcome. Other than that, this was a passable location for the price. If all you're looking for is a place to sleep, this fits the bill. One plus side is that it is very close to Companion Bakery!
