This is my second time staying here. Staff is friendly, professional, and overall received great service!! Place is clean and has all the amenities for someone who was staying a few weeks in the area, like I was. The only thing I would like to see improvement is on the breakfast, but that is just a personal choice. Thank you for making my stay pleasant!
