Review Score: 8

Summary: From the moment you walk into the hotel, you're greeted with the fresh scent of a new, clean building. The lobby offers complimentary snacks and drinks, which was a nice touch. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful any time we needed assistance. Our room was clean, well-equipped, and spacious. The bed was a bit firm for my personal preference, but still comfortable overall. One downside: the bright exterior parking lot lights shine into the rooms quite a bit, and the blackout curtains don't block out much light. If you're sensitive to light while sleeping, consider requesting a room on the opposite side of the building. A couple of things to note — there’s no toaster or pool on-site. However, restaurants and shopping are within easy walking distance, and many major attractions are either nearby or a short drive away. On-site parking is conveniently located near exterior entrances.
