From the moment I checked in, the staff was friendly, engaging and gave off a positive energy that was refreshing and appreciated. I was in town on business and wasn’t prepared to stay the night, so I was not in the greatest mood, but the Front Desk Clerk was amazing! The next morning I interacted with housekeeping and they were also so kind and professional. Will definitely stay here again.

This property has become a favorite fingers I have to travel for work. The staff is sneaks so friendly and kind. There is a very easy and quick no hassle check in and out. The rooms are nice, sure they’re not state of the art, but this isn’t a brand new build. So, they have done all they can to make them modernized and they’re doing an AWESOME job! Great job team, I appreciate you all!
