Very polite and prodessional front desk. Checking in and out was super easy. Wasnt able to try their breakfast, but i read that they serve hot food which is a plus. The hotel was a couple blocks away from drink and food options which was great, but there were noticeable homeless people very close to the property which was my only concern during my stay.
