We stayed for the weekend and everything was great. The staff was super friendly and quick to help when I asked for extra towels and blankets. My biggest thing is cleanliness, and everything was clean and cared for. No concerns with the room. It was very nice. Breakfast was included each morning and the kitchen staff was friendly and out there the whole time cleaning up after people, making sure to keep food refreshed if it ran low. As an added bonus, there’s a restaurant right outside the hotel that you can walk to, and the food was fresh and very good. We all enjoyed it. I would stay there again.
