A 4 star quality hotel for the price of a 2-3 star motel
Pros:

Excellent hotel. I had to switch hotels due to sketchy outdoor parking. Checked in without reservation. Secured Parking garage. Very helpful staff. This is a FOUR STAR quality hotel. Perfect location. Clean. Everything you would need without the excess features of a 5 star hotel. Complimentary breakfast. Wifi, etc etc. Highly recommended
