The staff was extremely friendly and helpful during my stay
The staff were very friendly, especially Sherri at the front desk, as well as helpful..Great breakfast. Hotel is a little small and tired, but a great location and away from traffic bottlenecks esp if not headed into town.
Staff was accommodating. Breakfast was decent. Lobby had a good bright space. Shampoo, conditioner, soap, and lotion was all dove products, which I enjoyed.
