Clean room, convenient location, decent "free" breakfast and the dinner cocktail hour is a nice touch for a few included drinks. Con this trip was the tv not working half the time and the extremely sticky floor at the morning breakfast. Overall, would stay here again.

The breakfast was a nice spread and the "cooked to order" omelets have been a highlight for me 30+ years! Every staff member we encountered was pleasant and kind. I finally made a Manager's Reception and it was nice! The garage/VIP parking is only not so good thing for me because of the wait or walk vs just going out to your car on the lot; but that's the case with the location & vicinity.
