The property and rooms were very clean, nice & well-maintained. Staff greeted us warmly. Housekeeping took great care with our room, and we enjoyed coffee as well as their breakfast. We were fortunate to have a room on the "back side" of the hotel. There is some "road noise" due to the close proximity to the highway. The area surrounding the property is older. I think it would have felt safer with better lighting. It is close to a few restaurants and the university.
