We had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me warmly and made me feel at home. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and every team member I encountered was professional, friendly, and eager to help.
The whole thing was great and clean but we did find a roach when entering the room. Soooo made me nervous all night to sleep! But the staff was great to handle the situation.
