Liked that it was close to my husband's medical appointments at the VA. Wish there had been more options for breakfast, but we were able to eat at the hospital, which was fine. We'll definitely stay there again.

I didn’t expect to be able to check in early. I stopped by to let them know I was coming in right after work at 11:30 pm and wanted to make sure my reservation was still set but the lady at lobby said I can check in now. I was so pleasantly impressed. Peace of mind and I needed that. Thank you so much!!
