Staff was super nice. Room was very clean. We really enjoyed our stay. If I had to be picky I would say don't get the pizza from the attached restaurant, it's terrible.

Very quick process . And they let me check in a bit early.
The best characteristic of this hotel is the staff, who are so friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The breakfast is great. The rooms are comfortable with good closets and very nice mattresses and pillows. A very special thanks to Darcy and Kathy who welcomed me every morning to breakfast. Their kind and cheerful demeanor really helped to start my day well.
