The hotel was nice. When we got there, check in was easy. The staff members were nice, I checked in late so I only spoke with one person, and during check out the manager or employee was attentive even though she was having to do other work. The room was clean and neat. I was pleasantly surprised by the space in the room. Parking is easy cause the its a small lot. Definitey part of my list as far as hotels to stay in while in the area.
