Great stop

Upon arrival I was greeted by the people at the front desk. The young woman that waited on myself was very pleasant. Got us checked in and on the way to our room it was very nice. The hallways were clean and the room was very nice and clean. This was definitely a place that puts pride in their property. I will definitely stay again and would highly recommend this place to travelers.
