Clean, spacious, modern rooms. Beds and pillows were super comfortable. Good internet and TV. Close to the expressway with lots of food and shopping nearby. Free continental breakfast was what you’d expect. Would stay again.

Great new facility. The pool is small and two swimmers at most. Coffee maker didn't work in room, but the breakfast made up for it. Nice room layout.
