Great place to stay before flights, staff extremely helpful, and rooms are very nice. A train goes by close and makes some noise, breakfast is great, we only lacked plant based milk.

Worth the cost
Returned from a trip and came home to fleas infestation! Just needed a nearby hotel with laundry machines and a clean bed. Rooms are older and basic but have all you need. Bedding and towels are new and super clean. I would have score higher but the carpet was in bad shape. Tear out carpet and musty smell would likely go away. Then I’d give 4/5 starts. Breakfast is great! Staff is welcoming and attentive. I would definitely stay again. I’ll bring slippers next time.

Convenient location but as far as service goes, they don’t care and I never received my wine bottle for my Expedia perks. They charge $25 a night for parking in such a large motel but I parked on the side streets instead. Clean room and comfortable bed but nothing special.

No great.
The pictures are misleading. Only the front of the hotel looks nice. I was sent to the back half, which is just two apartment buildings converted into hotel rooms. I also think some people may or may not be living there.
