Staff was extremely helpful and friendly, the rooms were clean, and overall the experience was pleasant. The morning breakfast was pretty good for a hotel. There was scrambled eggs, sausage links, and potatoes, along with all the other normal Continental breakfast options. My only complaint (and it's minor) was that the pillows were not very comfortable. Otherwise, I had a great stay!
