When we arrived at 8pm .Gentleman who was folding towels (at the reception area) greeted us “Do you want something?”No smile or any greeting at all.at the room bath room sink was outside the bathroom and there were socks from the previous guest. For $345 a night it’s not worth it .

Great experience
Avania was cute, clean and smelled good. The service was great, everyone was kind and helpful. I expected the continental breakfast to be bagels and fruit. It was that but so much more. I loved this place. Stayed here for me wedding and so did my family. They loved it too! We would definitely stay here again and recommend!

Though one would think of this as a motel type property, this property was much better. The rooms were very clean and well equipped. The breakfast was good and replenished often. The staff were attentive and kind. Will recommend for anyone looking for a well located hotel.
