Awesome hotel.

This hotel was one of the best hotels for the price. The rooms and bathroom were very clean and spacious. The toiletries provided were of good quality (Dove). Unfortunately we had booked it for one night only and ended up wanting to stay more. Our family was super happy with the room and overall experience.
