I usually do not do a rating unless things are wonderful or horrible. The front desk staff was beyond amazing!! Shenice was so helpful to the guests that I had staying there during this winter storm. I truly do not know what I would have done without her!!

The facility and room were very clean and fresh. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The continental breakfast was better than most others that we’ve experienced. It was perfect for an overnight close to the airport.

It was a standard 3 star experience. Rooms were clean enough, breakfast was included which is nice. Staff could be a little more attentive.. we waited several minutes at the desk to check in at 3PM. $100 deposit seems a bit high compared to other, nicer hotels
