This place was a wonderful surprise on a night when we arrived late and didn't have a plan of where to stay. Room suddenly showed up on Expedia that had not been there the night before that we booked. It was a lovely place right on campus. we were there to see a venue at the arena. Bed was comfy people who worked there were mainly stood in super friendly. It was a great experience. I'd go back there in a minute.

We waited until past 4pm and showed up to long lines and then room was not ready. Had no ability to get ready for our night because we had no room and had to check luggage and leave for our event. Messed up the whole night.
