"Best place I stayed in this entire trip. The room was spotless. My only gripe was the shower - ran out of HOT water, but warm was good to finish. The staff were active and alert to customers' needs. Great continental breakfast with one's choice of fruit, cereals, juices, eggs, sausage gravy, and choice of breads. Oh, there was yogurt for those who like that stuff. Bed was very comfortable and got a good sleep. THUMBS UP!"
