Parking was convenient and free, rooms were clean and mostly modern. The free breakfast included hot options, coffee, tea and juices which was nice. The beds are quite hard and uncomfortable to sleep in unfortunately but other than that it’s a pretty good value for the area.

We were in town for a concert and the price was right but the staff was not welcoming or helpful. The staff member had no welcome, you’re in room cuz, or the elevator is this way, or breakfast is from 6-10. The air conditioning unit worked well and the beds were comfortable, but one bed was missing a panel on the headboard. Not as clean as one would expect. Would I stay again? Only if no other option.
