Easy commute to UA! No frills, but thats ok! Super clean, amazing staff, great price, quiet, safe, and easy parking. As a solo female traveler, I felt 100% safe here. Did not try the breakfast because breakfast was served at the seminar I was attending. Will stay again next time I have a seminar at UA!!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Facilities and rooms were like new, clean and restful and would stay here again. The only item that could use some improvement is the "Deluxe Breakfast" which was rather skimpy on choices (cold only) to begin with, and 2 of the 3 bakery item bins were empty (only 2 pieces of white bread in the 3rd) which were never replenished at all between 7 and 9 am. Other than that, the coffee was hot & fresh and the ice maker worked so that made for a good start to the new travel day after a good night's rest.
