Older property that is in excellent shape. Very well maintained and very clean. Staff was very nice and prompt to take care of issues I had. I was a woman traveling alone for business and never felt unsafe. Was able to walk around room in my white socks....and still white at the end of the night. Will definitely stay here again.
