"Our second stay and I’m really pleased with this hotel. So many extras. This time we partook in the free breakfast and didn’t realize they were offering hot breakfast cooked to order! Staff is extremely helpful and kind. Rosa at the front desk opened à bottle of wine for us and gave us some wine glasses to use. Will definitely continue to book Quality Suites."
