This property emphasizes in-suite cooking; travelers expecting a complimentary hot breakfast should confirm current breakfast options before arrival.
What guests say
Guest feedback commonly emphasizes friendly, helpful service and a stay that feels clean and comfortable, with the bed often singled out for comfort. The property’s easy expressway access and usefulness as a base for Auburn visits and golf at RTJ Grand National are recurring positives.

A noted downside is the lack of a complimentary hot breakfast, and one reviewer raised a concern about the sizing of the bathroom in an accessible-designated room.
