Clean, comfortable rooms with a pool..
Guests often describe the rooms as clean, spacious, and inviting, with all the modern conveniences of a nearly brand-new hotel, including big wall mounted televisions, good Wi-Fi, and a comfortable, flexible working and living space. The saltwater pool and whirlpool are nicely maintained, and the "Spin2 Cycle" laundry and fitness center is a hit with multi-taskers. The laundry machines are very affordably priced, too.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Light sleepers, pack ear plugs..
Several guests have found that the walls and floors are not particularly well soundproofed, and recommend the top floor, and ear plugs, for light sleepers.
negative:
A matter of personal taste..
Guests are very much divided on the breakfast sandwiches; while some find them quite tasty and convenient, others are very much put off by the idea of heating eggs in the microwave, and wish for wider variety in the hot menu items.
negative:
To err is human..
Though the staff receives many positive reviews, a few guests have reported disappointing experiences at the front desk or with management.
