The Executive Inn
The team were friendly and helpful, our room was very spacious and clean. We didn't get a chance to use the pool (only a quick overnight stay) but it all looked beautiful!

Honeysuckle Executive Apartments
Very comfortable, well thought out and equiped. View is not good but the hotel is well located. Parking and coffee pods should be included in the cost. I dislike paying for extras.
