Liked: Staff & service, amenities
We liked the breakfast, location near food options and freeway access, clean pool and hot tub, soft towels, plenty of parking, housekeeping every day, great water pressure, comfortable queen beds, cold water offered around the clock in the lobby. We disliked the smoke scent in our room, uneven floor in the room, only having one washer/dryer in the hotel, hot (no ac) gym, heard the upstairs residents-not soundproof, ants inside our bathroom and didn’t like the sink outside the bathroom.
