Very nice place for the cost

Hotel has nice amenities for its guests, including coffee and popcorn and cookies, and they ran a shuttle to and from the stadium. Inside of rooms is nice enough, with plenty of pillows and towels and it was relatively clean. The staff was really pleasant and went out of their way to be helpful.
