Super value, SUPER CLEAN, great staff

The staff is amazing, it is VERY CLEAN, which was great obviously. Whenever we had any issue or anything the staff quickly took care of it. They are actually even proactive as far as trying to help out any way they can. I had a great time staying there. Be aware, the hotel is not new and may appear a bit outdated but it is super clean, welcoming, great staff and overall good people. For example the sheets and the carpeting was impeccable everyday. What else do you need. Great value.
