They are friendly people, and the breakfast was magnificent. We made a friend. Her name was Maggie and they were just such sweet ladies serving us breakfast every morning. When we left out today, I did wait several minutes for someone to wait on me at 6:30 but she was very busy and we went ahead and just left. She was doing something on the computer. So we really didn’t get a teller what a nice day we had

This location is easily accessible from the road, staff is very pleasant, simple amenities but well maintained. Complimentary breakfast is outstanding. Easy to find lounge, pool, and free parking. Roims are comfortable, housekeeping non-intrusive. Negatives but a few. Since it is undergoing renovations some can be tolerated but outstanding is the spoiled hall carpeting on the 3rd level (smells like a keger spilled its contents) and the pool area is hopefully slated to be freshened up although it was totally usable and appreciated. Lastly, again due to renos the lobby could use a sitting area with seating. Otherwise, we will return in the future.
