Room was very clean, staff is excellent, parking was great. Breakfast was expensive and had loads of potatoes, no toast and only 2 slices of bacon.

Executive Hotel Pacific
I really enjoyed my room. It was clean and comfortable. There was a loud intersection outside of my room but I slept really great with the free ear plugs provided in the room.

This is a great place to stay for an airport layover. The free airport shuttle is very reliable and they offer a to go breakfast bag if you have to leave early in the morning. This is the second time I have used this hotel.
