Just passing through. Suzanne (front desk clerk) was very efficient at check in, making a good suggestion, and (when noticing that there were no "welcome cookies" she made up a fresh batch and even delivered a few to our room! People like Suzanne make wonderful first impressions to start the stay off right. Breakfast was good, fresh, and of good variety. We would stay here again.
