Great stay overall. The hotel was very clean, smelled fresh, and everything felt well maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout. It’s a non-smoking property, which made a big difference. The rooms are on the smaller side, but still comfortable. Location was super convenient with easy walking distance to shops, 7/11s, and everything you’d need. Would definitely stay here again.
