Property itself is tidy, rooms were in great shaped. Clean, today and with appropriate amenities for the tier of hotel. Staff was awesome. especially the breakfast attendant on Sunday morning. When I arrived right as things were getting ready to close down, she made sure I was able to take some food up to my family, offered me other items from the back, and just overall made sure I wasn’t rushed and had a chance to get everybody fed. Super friendly, and I appreciated that she went the extra mile to make my Sunday morning, so smooth.
