This was a very nice hotel for me. I liked its location, amenities, and staff service. The hotel was well lit and clean. My room had all the needed amenities that functioned well. The bathroom was clean and the shower functioned properly. The complimentary breakfast was good. They served eggs, sausage, biscuit and gravy, cereals, coffee, juices, fruits, etc. They had a fitness room and an indoor swimming pool. They also had a water fountain, a restaurant attached to the hotel and a nice lobby area. The staff members were friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my stay here.

Our room was clean and pleasant, our stay was fantastic for as short notice as we had to get this room. The staff also helped me print something out that I needed for an event I was in town for, as I'd printed too small and they were so gracious to assist. Thank you all again for our stay, we'll see you next time we are in town to visit family.
