The staff is excellent. Professional, courteous, and they react quickly to any concerns. Some rooms are outdated, repaired time and time again to the point of needing to be renovated. This is no reflection of the staff. Breakfast was great also. Would definitely stay here again. I cannot speak highly enough to the staff. They set the standards for other to follow.

Staff was great, and it was a perfect location. Jordan, at the front desk, was wonderful. She was so accommodating, friendly, and very welcoming. The thing that is super frustrating is I was charged for parking! I had no idea that it was $20 a day to park😡. I just found out through my email. That should’ve been made for clear. I’m so disappointed in that.
