This was a great place to stay. We spent two nights there and had a great experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the overall property was very well maintained. The complimentary breakfast was outstanding with lots of variety in foods to choose from. My wife is a big coffee drinker and she loved the coffee from the lobby coffee machine. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.
