As we entered the facility, the parking lot is very secure. That was exciting that it has a gate. We walked through the doors and it smells wonderful very clean atmosphere. The staff was very helpful. I needed a steamer as well as a makeup mirror and they offered that which was fantastic. Breakfast was very minimal however it was perfect. I will definitely recommend this best friends and family and I will stay here again.

And the breakfast was NOT breakfast, was not even continental breakfast - it was a single danish! One danish and that they called it breakfast! And yes, only one per person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I DO NOT recomend, and it seems like Hotels.com is becoming bad to use! Information is not accurate for charges and amenities.
