Comfortable and clean
Pros:

The room was comfortable and clean. Nice big tv

Cons:

Why are the hallways so dark? I have night blindness and if it wasn’t for my friend I would have had trouble getting to my room. And I don’t feel safe in dark hallways in a hotel. Big turn off for me. No exhaust in the bathroom and didn’t care for the two sliding doors to the bathroom. It was beautifully decorated and modern but too dark!

Stay here if you have the chance, you won't regret it.

I was in town for a concert this hotel was literally next door to the venue. Very accommodating, very comfortable beds. Easy to get to real close to I-80. Also had Amazon prime available. I would definitely stay here again if I am in town.

Cons:

I liked everything about it.
