Front desk clerk was very nice. Room with a great view and quiet. When staying more than one night, it would have been nice to have the nesspesso (sic) refreshed rather than having to go to the front desk. Over all though a great stay.

The property has been recently renovated, so that was nice. However, there are a few things that would be nice to see in order to compete with other hotels. 1. While the grab and go breakfast is ok, it would be great if they could find a way to offer a better breakfast. 2. The pullout couch needs a mattress that actually fits in the frame. It was too small which left the metal frame exposed on one side. 3. The suite bedroom needs a set of drawers. 4. The main room in the suite could use a lamp - the kitchen light is too bright in the evenings while watching TV.

I was honestly quite surprised by the property, it was clean, elegant and had some terrific views out the back with the (small) balcony, plus theres this great viewing area connected to the hotel parking lot and its close to some good dining options. Its fairly no-frills but it was priced to match so I'm not at all upset with the value. Its hard to afford hotels these days but if kept at their price I'll definitely make this my first choice when I'm back in town.

This was a great choice at this price point. The room was immaculate, beds were comfortable and it was amazingly quiet. Would have given 5 stars, but there were issues with the hot water for a very early morning shower. Otherwise no complaints and the front desk staff were very responsive.
