We were not as pleased with our stay this time. Staff not as friendly. Breakfast not very good. We didn’t care for the location of our room (right next to the lobby) and we were not offered a welcome gift.

They lack any usb outlets. the covers are thick so it's a hot/cold night. Otherwise an excellent stay. the staff is outstanding and the hotel is comfortable, accommodating and in good shape with a great little pool and outdoor patio with fire pit. It is in a commercial area.
