9/10 Wonderful! (3,237 reviews)
"Really nice hotel. Clean and the staff was very friendly. Our room was generally clean and comfortable. We noticed a slight, stale smoke smell right when we arrived, but it cleared out by the evening. It wasn’t a lasting issue, but something to note for travelers highly sensitive to odors."
