Great service at check in and throughout our stay, room was clean, breakfast could've used more seating but was exactly what they said (please replace the yogurt machine with single use yogurts) and was kept stocked. We enjoyed our stay.

Spark is very basic, good as a cheap way to stay a single night with the family on a budget. Everything was clean and well kept. My only complaints are the breakfast was maybe a little too basic with limited space in that area, and we got a suite but it did not have its own microwave.
