This is a great hotel, in an excellent location, and a lovely staff. The rooms are a good size and comfortable. The food at the breakfast buffet is very good and worth the cost. My only criticism was that my room obviously had been smoked in at some point in the recent past. It wasn't overwhelming but noticeable. Staff was very responsive and I was immediately offered a new room which I declined just because it didn't really bother me. The gym is also decent size, clean, and has good equipment. The location is excellent for great restaurants and shopping close by and downtown is easily accessible by a short drive. Highly recommend this hotel and will stay here again.

Arrived after midnight. Staff was welcoming and check in was quick. Nice hotel & room. The motion lights on the base of the nightstands would light up throughout the night which was annoying & inconvenience but other than that it was ok.
