We got an upgrade due to having two ribs and the computer originally putting us two floors away from each other, which works have been inconvenient at best. The facilities were clean, breakfast was great, and the staff were incredibly nice and helpful.

The only 2 negatives were parking…gotta pay?!? And the next was the breakfast lady….she was rude and not at all personable. But the overnight (sat-sun) desk lady, John (sat day shift), and desk dude (sun) were amazing.

OK for a short stay, but lots of problems
Biggest downside- the room had a moldy smell. Biggest upside- the best was super comfortable. Office chair in the room was broken. Breakfast items poorly stocked after 8am. Air conditioner in the main area of my suite broken and did not blow cold. No convenience stores anywhere nearby. But, the front desk help seemed friendly, so I was grateful for that. Next month I'll be looking into other options.

Lovely Hotel
Friendly check in and checkout! Lovely room. I came down for a cup of coffee in the morning of checkout and the breakfast room had closed … however an attendant asked me if I would like to have breakfast! So thoughtful … I didn’t, however this was thoughtful.

Everything was wonderful. Smooth check in and check out. Parking was convenient. The breakfast was delicious and had a variety of choices. We even had the chance to use the fitness center, although limited, it had enough of what we needed to fit in a workout.
