This place is amazing. It has laundry so you can wash your clothes but you have to bring your own detergent. There is a change machine in the laundry room as well. The parking was great just make sure you pay ahead for parking cause the do fill up and run outta spots. The front desk was helpful and amazing. Can’t wait to stay here next time.

It was a very comfortable place. The noise did not bother me. There are places to get food close by. Considering the warning of it's limited Service and freeway noise in the email, it's a fairly good place to stay.
