The property was clean and new. Everyone was friendly. The morning breakfast people were amazing, my only thing would be housekeeping didn't come to straighten up the room but I guess maybe they were busy. It was very easy to get extra towels and coffee. Very nice place

Perfect for a good night sleep

Well kept hotel with good breakfast service (I missed fresh fruits though), spacious well equipped rooms and ample parking. Like a dessert oasis to get a good night sleep ( you have a choice of soft and hard pillows).

Owner must not care, too bad nice establishment.

Very disappointed that a warm breakfast was not available. The proprietor should have provided an alternate warm breakfast even if it had to be brought in. The warm breakfast was a major reason we chose this establishment.

5 star for the check in staff and cleanliness of the lobby and the rooms. Breakfast is the usual continental with cereals, yogurts, fruits, bread, bagel, sausage and scrambled eggs. There is an automatic pancake machine, but it wasn't working when we were there.
