10/10 Excellent
"It was a great room to stay in. Clean and nice. Staff were nice and helpful. I wish they had a laundromat on site. There's a shuttle that runs every 30 minutes until 1:00am. The breakfast was good. The oatmeal needs some more stuff on the side to mix in besides raisins and brown sugar. All was great though! I recommend them."

"Front desk staff helpful. First room had a bug coming out of the A/C unit, but the second room was fine. No refrigerator in room. First floor walls in hallways and some doors had paint scraped off by laundry carts. Hallway carpets were dingy. Very limited breakfast selection."
