We enjoyed our stay here. Room 309 beds comfortable, spacious room and bathroom clean. Lots of plugs to charge our electronics. Our iron did not work, sink has a slow drain, fridge had no freezer section for our ice packs. Breakfast variety was great with eggs, pancakes, bacon, sausage, drinks, pastries, etc. Small dining area but had comfy chairs and kitchen lady kept everything cleaned and stocked. Limited parking was full at night. We will come back again. Thanks
