"Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised by how nice and clean it was, and how safe I felt at the property. I read some of the previous reviews and was a little nervous but upon arrival, I was completely at ease. The room was very spacious, updated, clean, and everything was in working order. It had a nicer than usual coffee hot and ion blow dryer. Those are some nice touches. Breakfast was wonderful as well."
