This hotel was really nice. The room was very clean and layed out very good. All the staff members were very polite and helpful. The breakfast had a good variety of choices including healthy options. The breakfast worker was very helpful and kept the food area very clean. The only downside were the beds. They were a bit high for shorter people to get onto.
