Sherri was fabulous! She checked us in, very friendly and kind and helpful with suggestions. The first room we got unfortunately had an issue around 9pm. The shower flooded our front door area and the phone didn’t work. I went down to let Sherri know and she didn’t hesitate in getting us moved over and even gave me extra points on my IHG credits for the hassle. Amazing service! Overall comfy beds, pillows were great, very quiet hotel. Breakfast was excellent each day! Parking isn’t too bad except it could be a problem if they book all rooms. Overall 8/10 as the property itself needs some maintenance you can tell (our second room the toilet ran every 10 minutes or so, but we got used to it)
