Rooms are always clean and staff is very nice and accommodating. Our flight was delayed and we didn’t arrive at the hotel until 3:00 am. They greeted us immediately and graciously offered a later checkout time to allow us to sleep.😴 We will definitely be back. 😊

Had the basic necessities and the bed was very comfortable! Some small issues — hand soap pump in my room was broken; the hair dryer died after the first day; the mini fridge freezes stuff — but overall I was still happy with my stay, and the staff were lovely!
