Very nice stay. Had exactly everything we needed. Location was so nice because you are close but on the outskirts of all the hustle bustle of the university district. It was nice having a couple fast food locations next door for a quick bite to eat. Definitely keeping this place in mind should we come to the area again!!!

This facility exceeded my expectations. Nice accommodations. Was greeted by front desk clerk very nicely. My room was ready and clean. Its appears room has been remodeled and was very nice. Room and linens were clean and amenities were plentiful. I highly recommend this facilty. Folks above me were noisy, sounded like someone drag racing on the street adjacent to the hotel but thats not their fault. To the franchise owner, keep up the good work.
