"This is a good place to stay when visiting the area and our second time there. The staff was very friendly. The breakfast staff is wonderful. The food is very good and plentiful. They keep everything very clean and the serving area restocked. I even heard the young man giving great tourist advice to an elderly couple. I took off one star because the room type we reserved was unavailable. The desk staff said Expedia had oversold the handicap rooms, so I guess it wasn’t the hotels fault, but it was disappointing."
