Parking was very easy. Very fresh room concept and everything was clean. Workers can be a bit reluctant to replace breakfast items are gone, even though breakfast was still being served. Overall, would stay gain because of close proximity to University and restaurants.

Such a wonderful family friendly hotel. Vibrant colors and decor throughout the hotel. Loads of comfortable seating, tables and games for guest to enjoy. Rooms were bright colored , spacious and clean. Beds and pillows were very comfortable . Spacious bathroom. Breakfast was good. My kids raved about the pancake maker. All in all it was enjoyable stay. Hotels.com made it extremely easy for me to reserve and pay for our room.

The breakfast amenities were surprisingly varied in food options and the staff was incredibly kind and even checked in with me by phone to see if there was anything they could do to help accommodate our stay. We were there because of a surgery I had at Good Samaritan that day and I couldn't be happier with our choice of lodging for the occasion.
