Disliked: Amenities
There were a couple hotels around this price point but we decided to book this one because of the included breakfast. However, there wasn’t much of a breakfast available, basically honey buns and cereal where the milk came out of a fairly empty gallon jug that was offered to me. The toilet also didn’t flush well and found myself having to plunge the toilet after each use to get the water moving down.

Elva at the front desk was wonderful and very kind. She went above and beyond to make our stay good. She also helped a friend of ours with the same kindness. Also the young man in the breakfast room was great, but I don't know his name. We will stay there again in the future.
