The young lady that checked us in was arrogant and aloof. She asked a question that I hadn't answered yet, and she looked at me with no patience and said, " My question?" She also irritated the guest in front of us who left muttering to herself. Very poor customer skills.

Birthday Celebration

Check in was easy, Hotel is older but fairly well maintained, The Staff was friendly and helpful, at the front desk during check in one of the staff team (WHO WAS NOT HELPING US AT ALL) went into a back office and came out a few minutes later with a ballon saying "where is that little guy" That simple gesture and ballon made my 2 year old Grandsons weekend! He had so much fun playing catch with that ballon in the room! The rooms are a little small and the bathrooms very small with little counter space, much better suited to a single person then a couple with a small child but we made it work. Next time I would get a larger room and request an Inside room as the noise from the freeway was quite loud at times. Overall, a nice stay for the weekend.
