10/10 Excellent
"Room was very clean and we enjoyed the comfort. As most people have said, the breakfast was super and offered plenty of variety. Had no issues with parking and while we arrived late, felt comfortable with security. Only negative is the motel charge an additional fee for incidentals, but it took too long for the charge to be removed. IHG also signs you up using your email to "spam you with offers" without your approval and I asked to be removed."

10/10 Excellent
"I was unfamiliar with the area, and the staff readily helped me and my son find a wonderful restaurant to dine at for dinner and then the next day a delicious restaurant for breakfast. They also helped me figure out how to use uber to get to the concert we had tickets for and helped us with ancillary food needs. And the late-night attendant helped me figure out my room's TV remote that was unfamiliar to me. Our rooms were off a quaint plant surrounded staircase. I will most definitely stay there again."
