The desk for who checked me in was very friendly and helpful. That was comfortable and the room was clean as was the rest of the hotel from what I noticed. Breakfast in the morning was good and the coffee actually tasted like something quality that I normally drink, which was nice. Overall, a much more enjoyable stay then I get most other places, especially in that price range.

The front desk person in the evening was great. I originally booked a king bed room, but our daughter ended up coming with us so I asked if there were any room available with two queens. She said there were and allowed me to change the reservation. She was very friendly & accommodating. The room was good, quiet and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was good as well and check-out, although not needed, was at noon. I would stay here again in the future if traveling through.
