The staff was excellent, very kind and went above and beyond. The staff working on Thursday and Friday a couple of days ago, one man lent me his personal charger, one gave me a toothbrush and a plastic bag for my dirty clothes, and another lady gave me toothpaste. The breakfast was incredible. Very tasty, extremely delicious, props to the cook! The had fruits, juices, bread, eggs, sausages, and more!! Reminded me of the food from Best Western, which is one of my favorites! Rooms were clean, and the price was affordable!
