Very clean and friendly!

Seems very new and incredibly clean. My only issue was confusion on parking upon arrival. If you park in the attached garage marked for Target shoppers, you can go to Level 2 to find spots not saved for Target. Then the hotel can validate your parking ticket. It costs $15 for one exit or $18 for unlimited exits. My room was perfect and the breakfast was good.

Clean, comfortable and family friendly

Hotel was super clean and recently updated. The staff was friendly, especially the breakfast host. Breakfast was okay, muffins, eggs, cereal, and nice to start our day. My kids loved the pool. Our only complaint was the hotel view is an alley, and parking is a block away so you do have to walk with your luggage. It was very noisy all night. There was construction and then garbage trucks all hours of the night so sleeping was difficult, but not the hotels fault. Overall we'd stay again as its a convenient location and the hotel was clean and comfortable.

Shocking

There is no hotel security at all on this property , and it was needed when a man verbally assaulted and tried to physically intimidate me, my daughter and my sister while having breakfast in the lobby area. After contacting gen manager , she spoke to him, and it was his word against ours! As women traveling alone- please reconsider staying here, I can’t believe he wasn’t escorted out , but then again- no security to do so!!
