Room was clean and bed/pillows were exceptionally comfortable. We had some issues with noise passing through the door and noise from the nearby highway was heard at times interrupting sleep. The check in was easy and the front desk assistant Jarrod King was a pleasure to work with and made us feel welcome. We enjoyed the coffee bar in the morning, but hope to stay again to experience a full breakfast. 5 out of 5 experience, will stay again.
