Clean Place. Unfriendly staff

We enjoyed our stay here as far as the convenience and the Mountain View. However the staff was very unfriendly and unprofessional. Every time I asked for towels or wash cloths I was questioned on how many was in my room and they acted as if they didn’t want to help me. If you stay there you will want to avoid a lady named Angie. She is very rude and needs to be disciplined!

Property was well maintained. Staff were pleasant. The only negatives were the shipping containers in the parking lot blocked our view and the pool was closed. Otherwise, we would definitely recommend this hotel.
