Cons:

Front Desk Amy was rude and abrupt. Commented ‘oh your Reservation is Booking.com.
We asked for Room. She denied us.
Ask if we cancel. I said yes. Ask for reservation to show cancel and 0 balance and other counter help show her how on computer. We left

Very good. Would stay again. Thank you.
Pros:

Good location. Clean. Breakfast was very good.
I would like to compliment Sue and Darla that provided breakfast. They were so nice and kind and attentive. I enjoyed seeing their bright, smiling faces the mornings I was there, and enjoyed talking with them.

Cons:

My only complaint was there was water standing in bathtub after shower. Never could get it to drain.
