The hotel is very nice and clean. I loved my room. I was allowed to check in early at 1 pm because I did not have transportation and would have just been sitting around waiting. That was such a relief to be able to get into the room and relax for a bit. Complimentary hot breakfast was a plus and a money saver! I was staying alone and definitely felt very safe. I would definitely recommend this hotel! The only negative was that there was no airport shuttle. I had to catch Lyft to the airport but it wasn’t that bad. Rates were reasonable… I guess since the airport was only 15 minutes away.
