Great place! Awesome staff!
The staff were so friendly and welcoming! Especially the lady working the front desk and the lady working the breakfast buffet! Rooms were comfy and no odd smells. Plenty of towels and loving their body wash and shampoo/ conditioner. There was absolutely nothing bad about our experience.

The hotel was very clean and the employees were the most friendly I've encountered in a long time! The only complaint is that the walls are pretty thin as we heard crying kids and a lot of thumping around from our neighbors one night. The breakfast selection was decent. We would definitely stay again!
