“Rooms are great. Parking is expensive. One of the people at the front desk was not helpful, cranky and didn’t really seem to care (like it was a bother). Just one person, everyone else was a joy. Locations convenient and lost of quick serve and national brand restaurants within walking distance.”

During one of the most painful days I’ve endured I had the pleasure of speaking with a young lady named Yuliza who answered the phone at this lovely hotel.
