This is our 3rd time staying here. The staff is always so friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and don’t have the musty smell many hotels have. The hotel is very well maintained. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you for making our stay an enjoyable one

This was my second stay at this property, and I chose to return there rather than staying at a less expensive place. Coffee and cold drinking water are available in the lobby 24/7. The breakfast has a good .variety, the room is very comfortable and nicely decorated. The Wi-Fi is excellent. There is a nice exercise room. There are several restaurants within walking distance.

Check in desk was exceptional. Attendant was friendly, professional and helpful. Everything was clean and appealing! There may have been just a little wear and the TV didn’t work very well (changing channels). Breakfast was great. The biscuits were top notch! Great area- very safe and quiet. Excellent value for price.
