Great staff but…
Staff were amazing, but the property was dated! Dresser had a block of wood under one of the legs, odd piece of paper under bedside table leg and bedside table drawer would not stay closed, so we kept hitting it! Not enough parking for number of rooms

Comfortable and Clean
The staff were all very nice and friendly
Bed was comfortable. Shower head is very low. If you are taller then 5' 8" you will need to squat or bend over. Continental breakfast was decent, nothing crazy, but definitely better than donuts. The even had an almond milk option.
