Best Staff

The man working for front desk at 4:30pm yesterday was the friendliest hotel staff I have ever had. I’m 39 years old and have traveled all over the country and much of Europe and even South Africa. This man was the coolest, friendliest and most helpful hotel employee I’ve ever encountered.
