I booked this hotel since I had a reunion/family visit. The room was clean & quiet. Room service was offered every day. Breakfast was good...hot food with a good variety...plenty of room to sit inside & outside on the patio. The front desk staff were always pleasant with a smile and an answer to any question I had. I would recommend this hotel.

I’ve stayed at this hotel several times always have an excellent day employees are friendly, courteous, and professional. It’s like my home away from home on this day.
