The room was very clean, bed was comfortable, employees were kind. The breakfast was amazing for a weekday morning! Omelettes, bacon (crispy and delicious), sausage, warm cinnamon rolls, beautiful apples and bananas, coffee, juice, breads, oatmeal, and more...everything you could want or need! Checkout was easily done via text and an employee called to check in on me when I was running an hour behind schedule.
