The staff was very friendly and helpful.My room was clean and when I needed extra towels.The staff was more than happy to give them to me.The only problem was the security guard,he was a total dick head and that is no reflection on the staff.He was going above his pay grade.Other than that,I had a marvelous stay and would be more than happy to return again.
