This was by far the best hotel I have ever stayed at. The hotel staff was nice, friendly and welcoming. The entire hotel was so clean and very quiet. The complimentary breakfast was amazing, they had so much to choose from. Breakfast like that at any other hotel I have stayed charges you for that. This was my first time staying there and I will definitely recommend and that will be my only choice when staying back in that area

The renovations are superb! The little attention to detail is wonderful (good management), and the staff is excellent (good leadership and people who seem to like their job). Thank you for making this a fantastic stay. Really one of the very best I have had in a long time, and I stay at hotels often.
