10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay here! Check-in was super easy, and we didn’t have to wait at all, which was a great start. The staff was so nice and welcoming, and our room was clean and looked just like the pictures online — always a plus! The breakfast provided was ample and had a fun make your own waffle station. I was a little surprised by the $10 parking fee, but I thought the $25 pet fee was very reasonable. Overall, we had a really nice experience and felt comfortable during our stay. I’d definitely stay here again!"
