Clean, renovated and well landscaped property. Staff are friendly and helpful, location is good close to all amenities. No coffee maker in room, noise cancelation is subpar can hear people walking around and talking, water running etc. Breakfast is basic no eggs or meat.

Overall Satisfactory

Overall satisfactory. Hotel check-in was fast, friendly & efficient. The room was fine except that floors had not been cleaned. A sock, and dog treats were on floor of the room and the bathroom floor was also dirty. Continental breakfast was fine.
