The staff was so friendly! We had a problem figuring out the TV and they came right up to our room and worked on it until they got the channels to come in. The room was very large and included a kitchenette which came with dishes and utensils. The beds were firm, but not rock hard, or worn. We have an 85 lb dog and he was welcomed! Plenty of walking in the area too.

Disliked: Amenities
If your only other option is sleeping in your car, then this is great. Yes it's clean, and I thought the bed was comfortable, but that's where the positives ended. There were just so many other little things that were disappointing (terrible lighting in the room, shower built for people under 5' tall, no hairdryer in the room). Despite the positive reviews I read, I should have expected that for the price. Next time, I will definitely spend the extra money and stay somewhere else next time.
