Very Good

We stayed two nights to attend the Power to the People music festival. This was a clean, convenient spot. Being from NYC, it was frustrating not being able to walk out to shops or restaurants, but we made use of Lyft and had no issues getting around. Would definitely stay again, if in the area.
The hotel was beautiful, comfortable, and well maintained and staff was courteous. There was one small piece of dirt in the shower and that is my only complaint. I would definitely stay there again and the value was excellent. The security deposit was also returned promptly.
The main part of the room (bed, bathroom) was clean but the sofa bed was not so clean. The pool was good and the shower in the bathroom was hot and strong. Parking was plentiful and staff were helpful.
I had a clean room and a nice bed with free parking. The amenities were not amazing. It would be nice if they kept free water and coffee available in the lobby. The breakfast was a real bummer, Otis Spunknmeyer muffins, Tropicana juice…they didn’t even let me have cereal, which was on the breakfast card, printed. The coffee was lackluster and took a wait at the counter to get, when it was just a carafe of drip coffee.
The building layout was a nightmare.
Staff was kind and friendly.
We arrived late at the property, around 11:30pm, and were kindly greeted by the staff at check-in. The hotel’s lobby was welcoming and our room was updated and clean. The hotel was in a great location, near to the park for our lacrosse event and convenient to many restaurants, grocery stores and a Target. We will definitely stay here again when travels bring us to the area.
Everything was great! Stayed one night for a show at MPP and it was super convenient to the venue, like a 10-minute drive. Close to shops and restaurants. Try the London broil sandwich at Bon Fresco, a short drive away!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
I go back here again and again. It’s convenient, comfortable, clean and quiet. It’s near everything you need, including a great supermarket with healthy and delicious take-away food. My only suggestion is to maintain the gym better.
I had a great stay at this property. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the staff was friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. Check-in was quick, and the overall atmosphere was quiet and relaxing.
For future travelers, I recommend confirming your check-in time ahead of arrival and taking a few minutes to explore nearby restaurants and attractions, as there are several good options close by. If you’re driving, check the parking arrangements in advance to make your stay even smoother.
Overall, I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable place to stay.
Attractive lobby in convenient location (although a little hidden but gps got me there without any issue) Very comfortable bed, clean room with nice layout. I liked that the sink was outside of shower/ toilet making it easy for both of us to get ready
The room with two beds was large and clean. The elevator was slow, and long hallways were a bit of a chore. Lol
No complementary breakfast, bummer. But coffee and microwave in room was nice. Overall clean and comfortable- and not forget affordable!
