Clean, well maintained property with an excellent free breakfast buffet. Only problem was no exterior light in front of our room which made it hard to see when walking at night.

I love the open air portion of the property near check-in, great spot to sip coffee in the morning! The gym is a great addition but very small and realistically can accommodate 3 people max. My room was comfortable, nice layout, but the bed mattress needs to be replaced/upgraded (worn out springs and sagging on each side), and the corners and floors need a deep clean (dust and hair from previous users in all the corners). Great location.

Great location. Just minutes to Standard University, restaurants, mall and hospitals. Easy parking, clean and quiet rooms. Their service getting better each time we visited. Their outdoor seating is a plus. We love to seat near the fire pit and chat with friends. Or just watch and listen to water falls. Simply relaxed. Staffs are warm and welcoming! Super helpful!

Had a good visit. The room was clean and the staff were nice when you were able to be assisted had to wait on them a few times. There were just a few things gas that effected the visit. The walls are thin and upstairs guest were walking around a lot in shoes late at night. The TV stopped working couldn’t turn it back on.
