Pleasant stay in a large suite room for less than holiday inn express just down the street. I don’t think they had free breakfast or a pool.

Stayed while attending an event at Cable Dahmer. Super convenient to walk to the arena (weather permitting). Rooms were clean, plenty of parking, service was great. Would 100% stay again if in the area.

My Father in law and I stayed for several days while cleaning out 3 storage units. (So yes I love the jacuzzi and pool after a long day doing that).
The staff are so friendly, welcoming and helpful. If I ever need a place to stay in the area again… this will be my go to place.
The room was super clean and spacious. I loved to mini kitchenette. They have a snack area where you can purchase a variety of drinks, frozen food, snacks, toiletries, Ice cream,etc.
Right past the reception area they have an area you can borrow items.
There are several types of restaurants and shopping with in walking distance.

The things I didn't like is the elevator is super slow, for only 4 floors it took forever. The water took forever to heat up in our room, and the shower curtain was too short and soaked the floor into the sleeping area. Other than that it was super clean nice and friendly staff and comfortable beds
