"Friendly staff. Clean room. Great location. A few things would have made it so much better- simple hooks to hang clothes in the bathroom or vanity area, shampoo/conditioner/bodywash dispensers in the shower, higher quality towels, and COFFEE anywhere  in the room or even in the office.  I’d likely not stay here again as others in the area are similar priced and have better amenities."
