"My stay was great my only concerns are the fact that they have only on ice machine for the entire hotel and it was broken. The front desk person suggested I go to one of the near by gas stations and get ice. I also did not appreciate the fighting among the house keepers they were arguing in front guests and they also use very profane language and this seemed to be the norm for this location. I’m assuming because no one interrupted or try to intervene to minimize the exposure of this type of behavior to the guest at one point I was attempting to check out and two of the staff members were arguing and interrupting the person that was attempting to check me out by trying to get her to resolve their issue"

"This is a very nice place to stay. As always in America,so it's no fault of the staff. I still think hotel accommodations are overrated and too high, but this place as a business,rates very high as far as quality and what you get compared to other places that don't offer as much and the staff was very kind and professional and friendly and the only complaint is that the television seems to go on and off frequently Losing the signal, but I would definitely want to recommend this place and I would definitely stay here again"
