The BEST
Pros:

Right from walking in the door it was excellent. The desk lady was so sweet and she was dressed to make me feel like I was in a very nice facility. The room was clean, comfy and great pillows. The breakfast had so many choices and was very well displayed and clean. The dining area was also very clean. Definitly rexommend this hotel and would stay here again. The manager is also a very friendly, classy lady.
