10/10 Excellent

What a pleasant surprise after some crappy hotels in Atlanta and Houston! Mega friendly and efficient staff, free food & drinks when I arrived (really nice too!) and a clean, comfortable room with really good aircon. Can’t fault the place, I was really not expecting somewhere so nice for the money I paid. Keep up the great work!
