This is our second stay at this property. It’s clean, quiet and the breakfast offerings are delicious and plentiful. Would definitely stay here again. Downside is limited dining options to walk to from the hotel. Area doesn’t feel safe at night (to be alone). Bathroom could use another towel rack and lit makeup mirror.

I liked the free breakfast. The pancakes are silly but the rest of the food and options was great. I would have preferred some kind of room service because after a long day walking around campus with my kid I didn't really want to go out again. But it was fine, there are nearby places to eat.
