What an amazing surprise we truly enjoyed this hotel. We will be staying here again. Wow the staff was excellent. The coffee and the water in the lobby. Every single morning was amazing. It was conveniently located. It was not a problem driving around getting to where we needed to be from the hotel. Our room was roomy a very nice size the housekeepers cleaned it immaculately we truly enjoyed our stay. we will stay here again while we can’t get over how friendly the staff was and how amazing the hotel was. We really don’t think that it’s getting into justice as far as reviews and so forth it deserves a 10 star if possible 10 star all the way 100 star all the way.
