10/10 Excellent
"I am here as a travel nurse and I have stayed here during my shifts so far for the last 3 weeks. The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful, the coffee is always fresh, rooms are clean and the beds are comfy. Parking is available in the front and back. I like parking in the back personally, I feel like it’s a bit safer. The hotel itself has a cozy asthetic. "
