Staff was excellent. Very friendly. Hotel is very clean. Easy no navigate. My only issue was the bed was a bit hard. But all in all it was a very good stay and we will be coming up quite frequently due to my wife being in school and we will definitely be staying there for all our stays. Location is also a big plus for us.

The dog-friendly room was on first floor and had a large sliding patio door access to the outside. The grassy dog-walk area was just steps away from that patio door -- very convenient for walking the dog at 5 a.m.! Room was very clean with no carpeting, looked like newly remodeled. Check-in staff were very friendly and helpful, and breakfast included eggs!
