Sue in Customer Relations was on the ball, as usual! She had my favorite room ready. I spent 2 minutes checking in, as Sue had everything ready for my check in. The lights in my room were on and the AC was on to combat the hot weather. I got free breakfast - great eggs and gravy.

I stopped by early because I did not know when I could return and wanted to make sure my reservation would be held. The young lady at the desk said I was in luck, as she already had a room cleaned and available. Graduation weekend!!! The room was lovely, with a comfy mattress and outstandingly soft sheets.

Very Nice

The stay was fine. The room was very clean. Plenty of pillows. Not enough blankets, but that’s the same with most hotels. I didn’t love the sliding door on the bathroom…. Overall it was very nice.
