Parking was easy. The staff was helpful and friendly. The property was clean and appeared recently renovated. The room was very comfortable. My only issue was the one night I stayed there, people were arriving and departing anywhere between 2am and 5am. The voices and the doors slamming echoed down the hall and woke me multiple times during the night, which made it difficult for me to feel rested in the morning.

Excellent Experience
The hotel was quiet and exceptionally clean. Front desk was friendly and very helpful with directions to restaurants and stores. Room service was great. It was conveniently located a few minutes from the hospital, where I was visiting a family member. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

It is an older property that has been updated some. It is clean and the staff is very nice. If you are looking for elegance, this is not the hotel. If you are looking for a clean place near the hospital, it is great. It was a bit noisy as you can hear other guests music.
