The staff were amazing, super friendly and helpful from check-in to check-out. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed (fridge, microwave, coffee maker, comfy bed). Breakfast was good, though a few items ran out near the end. The place is spotless and feels very well taken care of. Everything was great.

My family has had an incredible experience working with Niahja at this branch! We’re staying here for my brother’s wedding, and also having the breakfast the next day in the conference room. Niahja has gone above and beyond to help us prepare for this special weekend, I really can’t say enough good things about her!!!

Close to both highways & Kingston, easy to get to. Very lovely service & helpful staff. Nice rooms, plush beds, microwave, fridge, & coffee maker (the little single serving kind). Breakfast food fine, sometimes ran out of a few items by the end, pretty much as expected. My main complaint: as in other hotels, the sink surround is *not* tilted towards the sink, which means that when it gets wet (every time you use the sink!), the water stays all over the place. Then if you or your clothes touch any of it, they're wet. Also, there should be a towel rack close to the sink to hang a hand towel.
