This was a nice place to stay and the staff was very friendly. They did ask for a card to put on file for a damage fee, which is normal but was charged 20.00 and thought it would be credited back, it was not. but everything was nice and it was a good stay.

Had to call to get front desk assistance to check in. Elevators were down due to lightning strike, thankfully we were on the 2nd floor and my son carried my suitcase up for me. Stairway smelled like a dirty wet dog. Room was nice, clean, beds were comfortable. Bathroom was clean.

We stay at a lot of hotels, and this has been one of our top 5 stays. Even my kids kept raving on how great the hotel and the staff were. Upon arriving the gentlemen at the front desk gave us waters and knew with the amount of people we had we would need a few extra things. So he brought them to our room! He brought more than I asked for even. Every time we needed something the staff worked quickly to help. The room was spacious and clean, and we were so comfortable we didn't want to leave. We will be back!
