Nice comfortable stay.
Pros:

Very comfortable beds! Extremely quiet and clean

Cons:

The only negative- we parked in back, but you can't use the back doors to get in the hotel, you have to walk around to the front doors.

The property was very nice and very clean. The front desk staff were very friendly and genuine.
Pros:

The breakfast was more than adequate. However, sugar-free syrup for the waffles would have been appreciated.

Cons:

The mandatory $50.00 security deposit that was added to my credit card account was not included anywhere on the receipt that I received when we checked out.
