Enjoyed our stay tremendously. Wonderful room and such friendly and accommodating staff both when checking in, checking out and in the lounge/restaurant. The property seems to be newly remodeled very nicely. The beds are very comfortable and everything so fresh and clean. I had to call the front desk for help with the TV and she came up immediately and got it taken care. We will definitely be back!!
