I want to recognize a staff named Andrea that was working the front desk during my stay. She was friendly and helpful and her positive attitude radiates from her. Thank you for making my stay such a positive experience.

Hotel is super clean and comfortable. The room temperature was so efficient we never had to change it while here (vs many others where I'm constantly adjusting the thermostat). My room smelled so clean and the bed was comfortable. Despite the heavy walk of the people staying above me I slept like a baby. It's so quiet and the blackout shades were a bonus to sleep in. It also has great breakfast options for sit down or on the go, in a clean and comfortable lobby area with high-top tables to plug-in.
